Feature Request: Toggle time and date

[minirusk]

Inside notebook, bottom left corner shows time.
Add possibility to toggle between date or time.

[ddvk]

just long press on the time

[minirusk]

It toggles time on/off. Want to display date. (RM1)

[ddvk]

toggle between date, time and none?

[minirusk]

Only time and none
(RM1, Version 2.10.3.379-patch_28.1.01)

He's asking what you WANT it to do. I like time/date/off

[minirusk]

Ok, did not catch that.
I want date/off.
Second best time/date/off

How about showing date above the battery and time below the battery and keep the toggle on/off? Time and date format should comply with locale of keyboard layout.

the localization data is missing on the device, so the date should be formatted by hand. I personally prefer dd.mm.yy or yyyy-mm-dd (which is a bit long)
and now the discussion about the correct formatting follows

[martin-braun]

@ddvk I thought about the localization data being missed, but what you should have is the selection of the language of the keyboard, so my idea was to simply format the date and time based on the language you selected for the keyboard itself. I also prefer dd.mm.yy, but only because we are living in countries that use such format. I.e. someone from the states would prefer mm/dd/yy.

If this is impossible for some reason, I think this would be a good candidate for a JSON config, although it would not match the recent.json when it comes to its topic.

[minirusk]

Due to space, day and month are sufficient. Day written as two digits (04), month as 3 letters (nov).
I feel it is sometimes confusing if the date is dd.mm or mm/dd.

@ddvk This might not be the exact place, but Is it possible to toggle, in addition, between date / time / local IP (192.168.xxx.xxx)? Wirelessly connecting to rM device will be much easier if the local IP address is visible at the home screen.

[martin-braun]

@naturale0 That's not a bad idea in general, but I think you should create a new issue and ask to display the IP in the main menu instead. I don't need to know the IP when I am within a document, but I agree that it is pretty annoying to access it over and over again, since it is changing in most circumstances.

@martin-braun Thank you for your suggestion! I have created a new issue.

Information could be added in a new tile (long, cover two columns) in the Share-menu
