EventEdit in calendar doesn't provide a default Event name on creation.

The event created with eventedit doesn't enforce an event name or provide a default event name.

You mean an event created with the autoCreate gesture?

It takes its name from the autoCreate config/property.

when I set the default name it doesn't set it when I create an event.

Can you please share your code?

I just used this configuration for a calendar:

autoCreate : {
        newName : 'New Event'
},

Hey epotapov,

I tried that config on our demo here https://bryntum.com/products/calendar/examples/basic/ and it worked just fine.

Could you please confirm that I followed the right steps to reproduce the behavior in the attached video?

Yes, that works for me, but it doesn't populate when I save the event without changing the name. It currently saves without the default text.

That's not how it works.The Calendar doesn't make the user erase its opinion.

It is just informational text to show the user what is happening:

We probably need to fire an event when the edit has been started so that it can be postprocessed by applications.

Here's a ticket for postprocessing an event edit startup: https://github.com/bryntum/support/issues/9579

In fact an event exists to do this. It's even hard for us to know the complete API.
