Shortcuts
Add preset shortcut chips above calendar panels for one-click date selection.
Shortcut presets appear as a horizontal bar of Orbital Button controls. Selecting a chip commits an OrbitalDateTime to the picker bind immediately — useful for common reporting ranges without opening the grid.
- Dashboard date filters (Today, Yesterday, This week)
- Reporting UIs where users pick the same relative dates repeatedly
- Range pickers that need quick anchors before fine-tuning on the calendar
- Build a shortcut list with helpers such as
today_and_yesterday_shortcuts. - Pass the list to
appearance.shortcutsonDateCalendaror popover pickers that support shortcuts. - Match
appearance.timezoneon the picker to the timezone used when constructing shortcuts.
This week preset
Today and Yesterday shortcut chips update the calendar bind immediately.
