Time format in WPS

(1/3) > >>

greyTux:
ATM we're having the following WPS-Tags to design the time format:

* Zero padded hour from 00 to 24
* Hour from 0 to 24
* Zero padded hour from 12 to 12
* Hour from 12 to 12
* Minutes
* Seconds
* Capital AM/PM
* Lowercase am/pmSo why do we have also an option-menu to set the time format??

Every time i download a WPS from english persons i have to correct the time format.

It would be better to have ONE wps tag %clock and then set the desired time format in the option menu. Same applies for the date format.

What do you think? That could be a reasonable feature request.

elborak:
The time format is used for more than the WPS. The time shown in a tiny font at the top-level menu need not be in the same format as in a WPS, where screen real estate is sometimes precious, especially for those using album art.

rosco_pc:
I agree with greyTux.

elborak:
Forcing the WPS screen to use the same format as the main status line would be a step backwards in functionality.  Most people want it to be more configurable, not less.

Mad Cow:
But why would you want two different types of time display? It doesn't make any sense. Sure it's more configurable this way, but less practical in my opinion. The bare minimum for time is "hour":"minute" which is what is currently used in almost every WPS, I can't think of anything less.
