Hi

New to KDE neon and loving it!

One question: I like to have the long date format showing with the time. However, the date appears under the time. Anyway of getting it to appear next to the time?

Cheers

No & Yes

No - I think, that there is no setting to put the time and the date to same line with the KDE digital clock.

Yes - you could edit the KDE digital clock qml scripts and put the time and the date to the same line.

There could be third party clocks at the KDE Store: https://store.kde.org/browse/ord/latest/


Earlier: My Digital Clock - viewtopic.php?f=17&t=134970&p=361132#p361132

Now, with the plasma 5.9.5:



Changing ../plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.digitalclock/contents/ui/DigitalClock.qml line 485:

Code: Select all

return Qt.formatTime(currentTime, main.timeFormat);

to

Code: Select all

return Qt.formatTime(currentTime, main.timeFormat) + ' ' + Qt.formatDate(main.currentTime, main.dateFormat);

Restarting the plasmashell and the digital clock is showing time and date on one line:


Note !
As the digital clock is calculating the space needed from the font etc. settings you will need spacers.
The digital clock settings:
Show date - off !
Date format: Long Date.

Thanks

As of Plasma 5.22, under "Configure Digital Clock > Appearance" there is an option to show date "always beside time".

(Sorry for bumping an old thread, but this was the top search result when I was trying to find an answer to this question, so hope it helps someone else)
