Currently the user uses the calendar control to select the date in maps and charts. When the averaging period is "month" this is not very user-friendly. When the averaging period is "year" it is very un-user friendly.
We could stop using the Dojo dijit calendar control, and instead have three drop-downs
- Day of month
- Month
- Year
We could disable the drop-downs depending on the averaging time selection. This would be similar to the current treatment of the hour drop-down.
NB same dijit (widget) is used in maps and charts.
