Period Selector in JavaScript Range Navigator control

The period selector allows to select a range with specified periods.

Periods

Periods is an array of objects that allows users to specify the range of periods. The “interval” property specifies the count value of the button, and the “text” property specifies the text to be displayed on button. The “intervalType” property allows users to customize the intervals of the buttons. The “intervalType” property supports the following interval types:

Auto
Years
Quarter
Months
Weeks
Days
Hours
Minutes
Seconds
