Hi,

As the title says currently Sunday is set to be the first day of calendar widget. I would like it to be Monday. How do I do it?

Code: Select all

$ localectl status                                                                                                                               
   System Locale: LANG=en_IN.UTF-8                                                                                                                                     
       VC Keymap: us                                                                                                                                                   
      X11 Layout: us,in                                                                                                                                                 
     X11 Variant: ,eng

FWIW Korganizer automatically chooses Monday as the first day of the week while the widget doesn't?

Regards,
Sudhir.

KOrganizer has correctly chosen Monday as the first day of the week. The problem is with the plasma widget which still chooses Sunday as the first day of the week. I don't suppose they are related. I have observed as long as I set my locale LANG=en_IN.UTF-8 the calendar will automatically set to use Monday as the first day. Should I file another bug report so that the widget also chooses same settings as KOrganizer.

Code: Select all

$ locale -ck LC_TIME
LC_TIME
abday="Sun;Mon;Tue;Wed;Thu;Fri;Sat"
day="Sunday;Monday;Tuesday;Wednesday;Thursday;Friday;Saturday"
abmon="Jan;Feb;Mar;Apr;May;Jun;Jul;Aug;Sep;Oct;Nov;Dec"
mon="January;February;March;April;May;June;July;August;September;October;November;December"
am_pm="AM;PM"
d_t_fmt="%A %d %B %Y %I:%M:%S %p %Z"
d_fmt="%A %d %B %Y"

t_fmt_ampm="%I:%M:%S %p %Z"

I would file

I filed the bug which got closed pretty quickly. Calendar follows locale settings. KOrganizer follows some other unknown settings. So I am back to square one.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360965

it is available in systemsettings for KDE 4 https://userbase.kde.org/File:Settings-locale.png if you're using 5 then I think it is a QT issue and would be this bug https://userbase.kde.org/File:Settings-locale.png

Plasma 5 calendar widget and clock's calendar is reading the first day of the week from the Qt locales - The MonthView.qml has line:

Code: Select all

firstDayOfWeek: Qt.locale().firstDayOfWeek

With the Arch Linux & Plasma 5.6 the MonthView.qml is a the /usr/lib/qt/qml/org/kde/plasma/calendar/

By the http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtqml-locale. ... fWeek-prop :

firstDayOfWeek : enumeration
Holds the first day of the week according to the current locale.

Locale.Sunday = 0
Locale.Monday = 1
Locale.Tuesday = 2
Locale.Wednesday = 3
Locale.Thursday = 4
Locale.Friday = 5
Locale.Saturday = 6

At here, changing the

Code: Select all

firstDayOfWeek: Qt.locale().firstDayOfWeek

to

Code: Select all

firstDayOfWeek: 1

this will set the Monday as the first day at the week.

Rog131 great work

in openSUSE that file is /usr/lib64/qt5/qml/org/kde/plasma/calendar/MonthView.qml

Sudhir Khanger remember that file will be written over during a future upgrade

that "Qt.locale().firstDayOfWeek" isn't setable in systemsettings is imho a bug

Thanks google01103,

I don't like to modify system files. That's in purview of the package manager especially not when it get over written easily.

But thanks for taking time to write it. I will save it for future and hopefully it will be fixed in Qt.

Thanks Rog131. That does work.

Thanks @Rog131, worked.
However the path was "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/qml/org/kde/plasma/calendar/MonthView.qml" for me.

thanks for sharing the useful information :)
