11>  **NOTE**
12>
13> - The APIs of this module are supported since API version 8. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.
14>
15> - The functionality of this module depends on UI context. This means that the APIs of this module cannot be used where [the UI context is unclear](../../../ui/arkts-global-interface.md). For details, see [UIContext](../arkts-apis-uicontext-uicontext.md).

19### show<sup>(deprecated)</sup>
20
21static show(options?: TimePickerDialogOptions)
22
23Shows a time picker dialog box.
24
25> **NOTE**
26>
27> This API is deprecated since API version 18. You are advised to use [showTimePickerDialog](../arkts-apis-uicontext-uicontext.md#showtimepickerdialog) in [UIContext](../arkts-apis-uicontext-uicontext.md) instead.
28>
29> Since API version 10, you can use the [showTimePickerDialog](../arkts-apis-uicontext-uicontext.md#showtimepickerdialog) API in [UIContext](../arkts-apis-uicontext-uicontext.md), which ensures that the time picker dialog box is shown in the intended UI instance.

31**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.
32
33**System capability**: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full
34
35**Device behavior differences**: On wearables, calling this API results in a runtime exception indicating that the API is undefined. On other devices, the API works correctly.

74| dateTimeOptions<sup>12+</sup> | [DateTimeOptions](../../apis-localization-kit/js-apis-intl.md#datetimeoptionsdeprecated) | No| Yes| Whether to display a leading zero for the hours and minutes. Currently only the configuration of the **hour** and **minute** parameters is supported.<br>Default value:<br>**hour**: For the 24-hour format, the default value is **"2-digit"**, meaning the hour is displayed as a two-digit number.

For the 12-hour format, the default value is **"numeric"**, meaning no leading zero.<br>**minute**: The default value is **"2-digit"**, meaning the minute is displayed as a two-digit number. If the actual value is less than 10, a leading zero is added, displayed as "0X".<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 12.|

77| onEnterSelectedArea<sup>18+</sup>   |  Callback\<[TimePickerResult](ts-basic-components-timepicker.md#timepickerresult)> | No | Yes |  Represents the callback triggered during the scrolling of the text picker when an item enters the divider area. Compared to the **onChange** event, this event is triggered earlier, specifically when the scroll distance of the current column exceeds half the height of the selected item, which indicates that the item has entered the divider area.<br>**NOTE**<br>When **enableCascade** is set to **true**, using this callback is not recommended due to the interdependent relationship between the AM/PM and hour columns. This callback indicates the moment an option enters the divider area during scrolling, and only the value of the currently scrolled column will change. The values of other non-scrolled columns will remain unchanged.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 18.|
78| enableCascade<sup>18+</sup>              | boolean | No | Yes | Whether the AM/PM indicator automatically switches based on the hour in 12-hour format.<br>Default value: **false**. The value **true** means that the AM/PM indicator automatically switches based on the hour in 12-hour format, and **false** means the opposite.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 18.|
79| enableHapticFeedback<sup>18+</sup> | boolean | No | Yes | Whether to enable haptic feedback.<br>The value **true** means to enable haptic feedback, and **false** means the opposite. The default value is **true**.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 18.<br>**Note**:<br>To enable haptic feedback, you must declare the ohos.permission.VIBRATE permission under **requestPermissions** in the **module.json5** file of the project.<br>"requestPermissions": [{"name": "ohos.permission.VIBRATE"}]|
