When using the Date Picker Style "compact" from iOS 14 a popup with the calendar is opened, when the user taps on the date. It is possible to trigger this popup without any user interaction?

My hack:

Code Block swiftlet datePicker = UIDatePicker(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 50, height: 50))
datePicker.preferredDatePickerStyle = .compact
/* Removes labels */
datePicker.subviews.forEach({ $0.subviews.forEach({ $0.removeFromSuperview() }) })
/* Can now use popup from date picker */
