I have a project for a global client who asked me to change the date format in the alarm log to DD-MM-YYYY from MM-DD-YYYY. However, I am unable to find this option in the settings. Can you provide guidance on how to make this change?
I discovered the solution to my query - it all comes down to the operating system settings. By configuring my development computer to the requested format, I was able to see it as an available option in the object settings. I hope this information proves helpful to others who may encounter the same issue!
Thank you for your input, einnh. It is indeed a common issue with Panelview Plus screens, which can be resolved by adjusting the settings in the Config Screens. However, I am facing difficulty in changing this when using View ME Station on a Panel PC or Laptop. Despite having Panel PCs running FTView ME Station V11 with the OS configured to AU (which utilizes DD/MM/YYYY format), the date is still displayed as MM-DD-YYYY. Are there any solutions available for installations without Panelview Plus screens?
It sounds like you're facing a common issue among developers working with clients globally. Sometimes, the date formatting isn't a straightforward option in the settings. However, you could work around it by writing a simple function that reformats the dates for you. If you share which programming language you're using and some more details about the project or system, I or other users can provide more accurately targeted advice.
It sounds like a bit of a hassle! Typically, the date format can usually be adjusted in the settings under “Regional Settings” or “Date/Time Formats.” If you don’t see that option readily available, it might be worth checking the project documentation or reaching out to their support team, as sometimes they can provide specific coding instructions for custom formats. Good luck!
