I'm using property & event binding to selected attribute in angular material calendar like in docs:

<mat-card>
  <mat-calendar [(selected)]="selected"></mat-calendar>
</mat-card>
<code>{{ selected }}</code>

export class AppComponent implements OnInit, AfterViewInit {
  selected = new Date(1999, 1, 1);

  ngOnInit() {
    this.selected = new Date(1999, 2, 2);
  }

  ngAfterViewInit(): void {
    this.selected = new Date(1999, 3, 3);
  }
}

The problem is calendar is not adjusting it's view to the set date.

What am I missing?

CodePudding user response：

What you're missing is the usage of [startAt] input.

When we want to start the calendar with the default value we need to pass it as startAt.

So in your case, you can make a fast check by adding

<mat-calendar [(selected)]="selected" [startAt]="selected"></mat-calendar>

Those should be separate variables so change them after checkup if this work for you.
