TAdvDateTimePicke one digit problem(s)

VCL TMS VCL UI Pack

Good morning to all,
little problem (but big) problem on TAdvDateTimePiker that is caming from windows!
I use the keyboard to enter the date and, when i press the enter key, the date is "accepted" and start the procedure.
All works well if the date is in the format dd/mm/yyyy but if the date is in other format like d/mm/yyyy or dd/m/yyyy the date will not change because, seems, the component need dd/mm/yyyy format.
So, for example, input date 11/11/2024 works 9/11/2024 not works 09/1/2024 not works.
Exist one way, in the component, to adjust the date with 2 digit day and month (forma does not work).
As Workaround when i press enter i move the focus to another control and back to TAdvDatetimePicker, in this way the date swith to correct one.
Example: input date 9/11/2024 move the focus to other control, back to TAdvDateEdit the date change to 09/11/2024.

I tried to enable userinput but in this way i have to rewrite the event.

Thanks for attention

Daniele

I'm not sure I fully understand your issue.
First of all, TAdvDateTimePicker is control that allows you to enter both date & time at the same time. Internally, it is built from 2 standard VCL TDateTimePicker controls. The keyboard / mask entry is based on this TDateTimePicker (which wraps the Microsoft Windows DATETIMEPICKER class. So, the behavior to enter is controlled by this Microsoft class and we can customize this only to a certain level. When I enter a date here with single number and navigate to month entry (with arrow key), it gets indeed formatted with a prefix '0'. But I cannot see anything problematic with this behavior. It still returns the correct date via AdvDateTimePicker.Date and even parsing such date with numbers that have a zero as prefix, should work out of the box.
