[opensuse] how do I get "pan" to use a 24hour clock?
I guess this is a locale setting, but whereas other applications default to a 24hour clock, pan uses a 12 hour clock (when displaying article timestamp). This is on leap422, with the latest updates. Also, tooltips on icons in pan just show as empty boxes, is this likely to be a graphics driver issue? -- Posted with pan pan 0.139 from openSUSE Leap42.2 office34: Cyrix 486DX2/66MHz, 4096Mb RAM, #9 GXE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I just fired up Pan to look. I do get the 24 hour timestamp, and toolptips show a white on black text box. I'm using XFCE. If you are on KDE, maybe you are missing a library. I looked at the preferences, and nowhere could I see a time preference, so it must come either from the desktop, or from the "locale" settings: LC_TIME=en_DK.UTF-8 Unless there are hidden settings... :-? -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

Yes, I'm on KDE. I think tooltips are fine in other apps.

Ah, just used that, and pan changed the timestamp formatting. I wonder why e.g. knode and thunderbird don't need it. -- Posted with pan pan 0.139 from openSUSE Leap42.2 office34: Cyrix 486DX2/66MHz, 4096Mb RAM, #9 GXE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Check with gtk apps. Just guessing Pan uses gtk, but I don't know.

Thunderbird reads the locale and uses it, but it seems with more liberty. That particular one happens to be ISO in English, which is why I use it. Year-month-day. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
