Hi @daletman,

Thanks for the feature request, I just want to make sure I fully understand the need behind this. Based on your description, are you looking to access the selected date directly from the event parameters of the select event?

Currently, the sample CalendarSingleDaySelection demonstrates how to extract the selected date.

The Calendar control keeps the selected dates, which can be queried from the event source (oEvent.getSource()) after the selection.

Could you please clarify your use case and why you think a parameter should be introduced?
Understanding your reasoning will help us evaluate the request better and decide whether this is a feasible request, since a way to access the selected date already exists and is documented.

Best reagrds,

You're right, that there is a way to get the selected day, but isn't the whole point of event parameters to directly get the obviously relevant information? You can get a lot of other event parameters of other controls without them being directly in the event object, but they are still there.

I basically was just expecting it to be there based on my experience with other event objects in SAPUI5.
