Date Time Source - Date Based Mode Advanced Problems

Hi all,

I set some arrivals using Date Based Mode in the Date Time Source Activity. Despite being the Model Start Time the 10.06.2022 the Calendar Start in this mode is set to 2.4.2021

Shouldn't it be the same as the Model Start Time?

Then I change the Calendar Start to 10.06.2022 (same date as Model Start Time) and set some arrivals for several days.

Something strange happens when a change to Advanced Visualization because I try to change the Column Start Time, but the menu that appears show a different hour and date that the one I set using Graphical Visualization

As you could see in the image above, it show some time on the 01.01.1601. It makes it difficult to set time and dates in this mode. Should this be normal?

Hi @Sebastián Cañas Thanks for pointing these issues out.

In regards to the Calendar Start, you are right that it would be convenient for it to be set to the model start time automatically when the activity is first created.

The second issue where the date is being displayed as 01.01.1601 is a bug. We will get this fixed.

I will add this to our dev list. In the future you can email things like this to:
