Unfortunately I cannot see your video, since the domain it is hosted on is blackholed in my DNS server. Make sure you are not pressing the Ctrl key at the same time as F2, that will cause the date editor tobe initialized to a fixed value.
I also looked at the code and I cant see how it is possible for it to get the previous value, but, the code was awkward, so I have simplified it https://github.com/kovidgoyal/calibr...250007a957814e |
Kovid - I made another video - shorter this time, its attached in a zip.
No Ctrl keys, vanilla F2.
I can't reproduce it either right now. Only on dates I 'created' with BMDE before 10 a.m. this morning my time - when UTC time was yesterday. That's why I mentioned my UTC offset - I had an inkling it was related.
This has been driving me nuts for days.
