Automatically insert sth. when sth. is written into InputField

Hi everyone,

I have an InputField where you can enter the date.
What I want to achieve is, that the field automatically fills in "/" when you enter the digits.

Eg. I enter 20181210
and it automatically converts it to 2018/12/10 while typing.

Or is there any other way I can achieve it?
I only want a field where the date is more readable and you only need to enter the digits

 

I would try setting a method to be called "On Value Changed" and have it parse and modify the contents of the input field's text component. I'd probably use a regex for parsing the typed contents, which you could also use for clearing out invalid characters while you're at it.
