Unable to correctly set date and time using the Datetime Widget

Support
1

When clicking into the datetime widget to set an exact date and time in the CMS backend, numbers skip and it’s almost impossible to set an exact date/time. Is this currently happening for all users or maybe my config is causing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here’s a video of what is happening when I click to set the times. You’ll see the hours jump several hours when just increasing the minute column by 1.

    label: "Radio"

My formatting was way off. Found a solution from helpful human on discord.
ZZ needed to be added to the format.

- {label: "End time",  name: "end", widget: "datetime", default: "", date_format: "MM/DD/YYYY", format: "MM-DD-YYYY HH:mm ZZ", picker_utc: false}```
