Hi
I have put in the following code in the application properties in order to have the expected date format in my application but it still shows in different format:
#Locale specific formating
jmix.ui.dateFormat=dd/MM/yyyy
jmix.ui.dateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm a
jmix.ui.timeFormat=hh:mm a
jmix.core.locale = en
Thanks in advance for your help
Hello!
Try these message keys:
# Date formats
dateFormat=dd/MM/yyyy
dateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm
timeFormat=HH:mm
offsetTimeFormat=HH:mm Z
offsetDateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm Z
Hi Roman
Thank you. But this is not working for me for any unknown reason. When I have a composite project, do I need to put it in all add-ons or somewhere centrally?
Since my one is composite project, first I tried to use the code in the message.properties in the main application and then also used in the module I have target for this.
xml file
<columns resizable="true">
<column property="employeeProfile.employeeCode" key="employeeCode" autoWidth="true" frozen="true"/>
<column property="employeeProfile.name" key="name" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="attenDate" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="dayName" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="attendanceDayType" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="attenStatus" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="entryTime" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="exitTime" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="entryDate" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="exitDate" autoWidth="true"/>
<column property="workShift" autoWidth="true"/>
field data type
message.properties
# Date formats
dateFormat=dd/MM/yyyy
localDateFormat=dd/MM/yyyy
dateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm
localDateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm
timeFormat=HH:mm
localTimeFormat=HH:mm
offsetTimeFormat=HH:mm Z
offsetDateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm Z
This is how it is displayed incorrectly.
If you want to display time in a 12-hour format, you should add ‘a’ to the format string. In my previous post, I only mentioned the correct message keys
For instance, these formats display time in 12h:
dateTimeFormat=dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm a
timeFormat=hh:mm a
localTimeFormat=hh:mm a
Note that messages in your application override messages from all other add-ons.
Sorry, this is now showing strange - see below:
This is what I have in message.properties
# Date formats
dateFormat=dd/MM/yyyy
dateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm a
timeFormat=HH:mm a
offsetTimeFormat=HH:mm Z
offsetDateTimeFormat=dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm Z
Did not notice in my previous post. Use h in lower case:
dateTimeFormat=dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm a
localDateTimeFormat=dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm a
timeFormat=hh:mm a
localTimeFormat=hh:mm a
offsetTimeFormat=hh:mm a Z
offsetDateTimeFormat=dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm a Z
Hi Roman
The above brings am/pm but not the separator as expected.
I also tried this:
# Date formats
dateTimeFormat=dd-MMM-yyyy hh:mm a
localDateTimeFormat=dd-MMM-yyyy hh:mm a
timeFormat=hh:mm a
localTimeFormat=hh:mm a
offsetTimeFormat=hh:mm a Z
offsetDateTimeFormat=dd-MMM-yyyy hh:mm a Z
As you have noticed the different format, my application doesn’t display the format given:
Hi Mortoza,
For LocalDate and Date datatypes use the following message keys:
dateFormat=dd-MM-yyyy
Upd.
Sorry for the confusion, there are no localDateTimeFormat and localTimeFormat. All available formats you can find here: jmix/jmix-core/core/src/main/resources/io/jmix/core/messages.properties at master · jmix-framework/jmix · GitHub
Also, you can change datatype formatting via “Project properties” from Jmix Studio. Please, refer to Project Properties :: Jmix Documentation
