YoWindow Forum

Would like to change the time to a 24 hour format. Is this possible?

Hi,

Not quitte shure what you mean, you are rather short in your request.

Maybe this can be of any help:
YoWindow takes its time from your PC.
So if your PC's on 12 hour format, so will YoWindow be
The same goes for 24 hour format of course.
Maybe you need to change that on your computer?

Goodluck,
Fred

Thanks Fred !

Changed my computer time to 24 hour format (military) and YoWindow now displays it.

Hi Mike,
it is not a "military" format ... all countries all over the world using this 24 h format ... without a handfull of countries

Sorry, but the ROW is also existing ...

I was in the military and refer to the 24 hour format as "military time."

Most of us do...

I guess with "us" you mean the "U.S."

i know it's getting more and more off-topic but for us good-old-europeans who use 24-hour-format in everyday-life it is (or should be) somehow important to make a difference between military and civil issues (and i don't mean only pronounciation).

The 'us' in my comment was not meant to mean the U.S., but *was* meant to mean those of 'us' who are past, and present, members of the military.

Hi Mike,
I fear, you have not understood the subtle explanation of Reinhart. We in europe make a clear difference between our daily life and the military issues. So for example every country spells in their own language and don't use the -so called- "Nato/U.S.-alphabet (of course I know it).

I'm afraid you don't red my link to Wiki:
"The 12-hour clock is however still dominant in a handful of countries, particularly in Australia, Canada (except Quebec), India, the Philippines, Pakistan, the United Kingdom and the United States."
So, in the rest of world in civil life the 24-hour time is standard!

I truly did understand. If I meant the U.S.A. I would have used capital letters. Otherwise lowercase...

Sorry for the confusion.

Mike.
