Hi there!

I was wondering if it is possible to use the rich:inputNumberSlider selecting a date in between two dates.

My thought was that if I created a converter, I could display as date formated as a string to the user, and work with epoch time represented as a long on the backend. That way the slider can use actual numeric values but the user can see a nice representation of those values. When trying to implement this, it looks like it will always use the string value as the value to slide.

So I did something like this:

<rich:inputNumberSlider converter="#{longToPrettyDateStringConverter}"
value="#{obj.startDateAsLong}"
minValue="#{obj.startDateAsLong}"
maxValue="#{obj.stopDateAsLong}" />
