Hi Mohammed, 
 
Based on the shared information and video, we have checked the mentioned issue “Month and year selection not working while placing SfDateRangePicker inside OverlayEntry” with the simple sample. While selecting dates in picker FocusNode lost that focus, so the specified control was removed from OverlayEntry and again added, then control was re-initialized and moves to the default view of the picker, and this is not an issue from SfDateRangePicker. We have ensured the same scenario with our SfCalendar control also, the selection was not working due to focus lost.  
 
We have checked the same scenario with the DropDown widget and selection was working fine. We have attached the tested sample for the same. Please find the sample from the following link. 
 
 
We hope that the shared information helps you. If possible, can you please share your requirement with OverlayEntry widget clearly, it would be helpful for us to analyze and provide you a solution at the earliest.

Hi Mohammed, 
 
Thank you for the update. 
 
Based on the shared code snippet, we have checked the “Overlay assertion issue in the SfDateRangePicker while placing inside OverlayEntry”. Before removing the entry, we need to check the condition (entry is null or not). So, we have checked the sample based on this condition and sample working fine as expected. We have attached the tested sample for the same. Please find the sample from the following link. 
 
 
We hope that this helps you. Please let us know if you need further assistance.

Sorry, to say that the issue is still exists in the sample which has shared, i have tested. Its a request to suggest some fixes or any alternative way to use in this concept.

Where as i have also tried flutter_portal (https://pub.dev/packages/flutter_portal)  instead of overlayentry still facing the same issue.

Hi Mohammed,

Are you facing the same exception, otherwise share the issue details clearly? It would be helpful for us to analyze and provide you with a solution at the earliest.

Hi, Thanks for your update.

I have already shared both the things from my end, its okay i will share and explain again.

I need syncfusiondatepicker need to work in OverlayEntry (same code which i have already shared),
NOT IN DROPDOWN (​​you are sharing the sample).​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I am unable to change MONTH and YEAR without arrows.

To make it easy understand about an issue i am uploading my code through bitbucket and video (google drive link) with full details mentioned in video.

Code in bitbucket (public access is given) : https://bitbucket.org/abrar312/oven_sf_datepicker/src/master/

Video google drive link : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1XJoC8Wlh2ii0dV744j-EW9mr8VNUFPSb/view?usp=sharing

I am again mentioning this i need syncfusiondatepicker to work with all its features and functionalities in OverlayEntry, NOT IN DROPDOWN.

Hi Mohammed, 
 
Thank you for the update. 
 
Based on the shred information, we have checked and SfDateRangePicker control has focus when interact with picker cells and it leads to makes focus lost in text field. So, the specified control was removed from OverlayEntry and again added, then control was re-initialized and moves to the default view of the picker with current date.  But, your requirement can be achieved by controller property in SfDateRangePicker and onTap callback in TextFormField.  
 
We have modified the sample based on your requirement. Please find the sample from the following link. 
 
 
We hope that this sample helps you. Please let us know if you need further assistance.
