Component recommendation

[SerhatYanalak]

Hello,
It's great to see new components added. You guys are awesome.
If I may make a suggestion for a component:
I'm not sure whether to call it a selector or a spin box, but a component like the one in the image would be quite nice.
For example, there would be no need for a dropdown menu to select a date (day, month, year), or to use keyboard input to answer a question like “How old are you?”

Hi @SerhatYanalak, yes, a component like this would definitely be useful. In fact, if you look at the code for TALDatePickerDialog, it produces a similar spinner to select a date, but as a native dialog. I’m quite sure it wouldn’t be too difficult to implement this in FireMonkey with the help of TALScrollEngine — I estimate around 7 days of development. If you’re up for it, I can help you with this task.

Hi @Zeus64 ,

Thank you for the explanation and offer!
I currently don’t have experience with developing custom FireMonkey components, so I wouldn’t be able to implement this myself from scratch. However, I’d be happy to collaborate — I can help by testing the component, providing detailed feedback, and sharing use cases to make sure it works well in real-world scenarios.

If you start working on it or provide some guidance, I’d be glad to assist in any way I can.

I totally agree with the creation of component like this (non-native and cross-platform). This could also be useful in creating an alarm settings Dialog like in the first image. It's so unfortunate that the way TALDatePickerDialog beautifully displays a similar dialog in Android cannot be replicated in Windows. We only end up with a Windows DatePicker like the one displayed in the second image, which is so old-school for modern FMX. A combination of a date and time picker dialog could also be generated with a component like this. Design combinations are endless. I would have helped, but I also do not have experience with developing Firemonkey components. All the best @Zeus64.
