Do note that in Mendix you always have a datetime attribute. So not only the date but also the time is stored in this single attribute.
See also the documentation here: https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/parse-and-format-date-function-calls#parsedatetime-utc
and here: https://docs.mendix.com/refguide/date-creation

You want to show the beggining of the day that the user selected If I get what you're saying, correct?
If yes you can use “trimToDays($dateVariable)” this will set the hours and minutes to 0 and keep the selected date.
