Description

There are a few other tickets picking at issues with the popup UI for the TimeTextBox?. I would suggest using a different UI completely. The current one takes too long to scroll through time values.

I would suggest doing something similar to Sunbird's time picker. It basically has two columns. One for hours, and one for minutes.

Another idea I had was to develop something similar to a fish eye menu where you'd have the time resolution increase as you moved away from the axis.

0 - 3 - 6 - 9 - 12 - 15 - 18 - 21 - 24

4 - 5 - 6 -7 - 8

0 - 3 / 9 - 12 - 15 - 18 - 21 24

You could get real fancy and have it overlaying a day/night gradient.

not for 1.0, sorry.

there are several people working on alternative uis/implementations in dojox. I'm not sure there's any point in having a ticket until there's someting concrete, like a design doc or a patch. perhaps this should be a forum discussion, for now?
