[mdDatepickerToggle] re #6053 closed

[MatteoNY]

This was closed as per: #6053 input disabled.
Stated in next release, I'm reporting it does not appear to be fixed in 2.0.0-beta.10
Next release? Input field gets disabled but button does not. If I add "disable"
on the md-datepicker-toggle it will be disabled. Tried using ng-disabled and disabled="booleanValue" does not complain but does not disable. Also needed to use a [formControl] to force the input field for the datepicker to be disabled ng-disable= or disable= did not work as expected.

Thanks!

Providing a Plunker (or similar) is the best way to get the team to see your issue.

What is the use-case or motivation for changing an existing behavior?

Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

Is there anything else we should know?

Also as a note, I think the disabled interactions between the input, toggle, and datepicker should be explicitly stated in the docs.

I was able to get the button to be disabled by using the following:
@ViewChild('pickerReturnDate') pickerReturnDate: any;
When I want the button to be disabled I'm using: this.pickerReturn.disabled = this.isTrueValue;
The above is a work-around when the input is disabled via [formControl]="date2Ctrl", for example, this.disableReturnDate ? this.date2Ctrl.disable() : this.date2Ctrl.enable(); This snippet disabled or enables the date picker's input field but the button remains enabled. The @ViewChild sort of fixes it but the button looks enabled but when you click gets disabled. Not as smooth but workable. I hope this will be fixed in the future. Great work all is good with NVDA screen reader tests. :-)

Oh it may be a duplicate of #6973. Didn't see you were using reactive forms.

I suspect this was fixed by #7514 please feel free to open a new issue if that is not the case
