Hello,

I have a custom editor with a datetime picker on it:

<umb-editor model="startDatePicker"></umb-editor>

with an angular controller turning it into a datepicker thus:

$scope.entry = {
            StartDate: moment().format(),
            EndDate: moment().add(7, 'days').format()
        };

$scope.startDatePicker = {
            view: 'datepicker',
            value: $scope.entry.StartDate,
            validation: {
                mandatory: true,
                pattern: ""
            },
            config: {
                pickDate: true,
                pickTime: false
            }
        };

When my form reloads using values from the database I set the value of the startDatePicker like:

$scope.startDatePicker.value = moment($scope.entry.StartDate);

And this works...sometimes. Sometimes the value that is displayed is the initial value of today's date, and sometimes it is the correct value.

And interestingly when I go to resave the form without changing the values retrieved from the database:

entry.StartDate = $scope.startDatePicker.value

is the correct value that I want, albeit what the datepicker is display is the wrong value.

What am I doing wrong that sometimes it displays the correct value and sometimes doesn't?

Help!
