Hello

I am using KDE neon 5.7.3 - up to date. I am getting used to it and most of my issues have been ironed out.

I seem to have lost my preferred time format and I cannot get it back. With earlier versions of KDE, I could go into Regional Settings and change the default am/pm to a.m./p.m.. I cannot do that now. It appears that whatever the majority of the people want are in my country then that is what I get! Maybe this feature will return in the future. Here's hoping!

I have gone into /usr/.../locales and changed the am pm format from
"<U0041><U004D>";"<U0050><U004D>"
to
"<U0041><U002E><U004D><U002E>";"<U0050><U002E><U004D><U002E>".

This change earlier effected all gnome/ubuntu apps but not KDE. I was trying!

I went into ~/kde...kdeglobals and found
DayPeriod1=am,Ante Meridiem,a.m.,A,00:00:00.000,11:59:59.999,0,12
DayPeriod2=pm,Post Meridiem,p.m.,P,12:00:00.000,23:59:59.999,0,12
The a.m. and p.m. are listed but no change in the gui.

Does anyone know where the time format is in neon?

I searched /usr/kde4 but nothing.

Please help. Thank You

New issue 464 by 2aq9j93...@...: Locale Format Not Useable
-http://code.google.com/p/gambas/issues/detail?id=464

1) Describe the problem.
As per 'The Canadian Style' book I have setup my 12 hour time as a.m./p.m..
The closest my Gambas3 can come to it is >>> 4:30:45 a./p. <<<. My Kubuntu
is setup as Canada and everything in Kubuntu that displays the time uses
a.m./p.m. such at >>> 4:30:45 p.m. <<< in the panel clock.

My Gambas3 reports the language to be en_US but I cannot see anyway of
changing it if that is the problem.

2) GIVE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION (if they are appropriate):
[System]
Operating System=Linux
Kernel=3.2.0-53-generic-pae
Architecture=x86
Distribution=Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS
Desktop=KDE4
Theme=Oxygen
Language=en_US.UTF-8
Memory=6023M

[Libraries]
GStreamer=libgstreamer-0.10.so.0.30.0
GTK+=libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.2400.10
Poppler=libpoppler.so.19.0.0
Qt4=libQtCore.so.4.8.2
SDL=libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.3

3) Provide a little project that reproduces the bug or the crash.
Not really applicable

4) If your project needs a database, try to provide it, or part of it.
n/a

5) Explain clearly how to reproduce the bug or the crash.
1. Set the locale to en_CA
2. Set the am/pm format as a.m. and p.m.
3. Print the time in 12 hour time

6) By doing that carefully, you have done 50% of the bug fix job!

IMPORTANT NOTE: if you encounter several different problems or bugs, (for
example, a bug in your project, and an interpreter crash while debugging
it), please create distinct issues!
