Date and Time Mask, while inputting a date without a time

See original GitHub issue

I have a date and time mask, the code is shown below:

$("#element").inputmask({
            mask: "1/2/y h:s:s",
            placeholder: "__/__/____ __:__:__",
            alias: "datetime",
            hourFormat: "24",
            showMaskOnHover: false
        });

Is there a way, that when the user inputs a date without a time, the time placeholder part (hh:mm:ss) is removed. In other words, I wish that the time portion is optional.

Thanks in advance.

Try with:

$(“#element”).inputmask({ mask: “1/2/y [h:s:s]”, placeholder: “//____ ::__”, alias: “datetime”, hourFormat: “24”, showMaskOnHover: false });

Use the greedy: false option

After inputting the date only. The time portion is being removed. But the time portion mask is being shown on hover, even while I have showMaskOnHover: false.

Any thoughts?
