Description Michael Herger 2009-06-02 01:47:20 UTC
The date/time screensaver can be configured to display the date in a localized format, but the names will still be EN only (days of week, months). This applies to Controller too, but I guess fab4/baby will get much more attention without being used than the Controller.

Don't know whether this means having locale on the OS level or do it in some LUA code.

Matt/Noah, Ben asked me to report this to you. We need localization for the clock. Not only day of the week and month names, but date/time format too. And date format is anything like dd.mm.yyyy, mm-dd-yy, yy/dd/mm etc.
Comment 2 Ben Klaas 2009-06-03 07:45:54 UTC
we discussed this extensively in campfire today, and I believe this won't be a bug after I'm done putting in the new clocks. Assigning to myself for now.
Comment 3 Ben Klaas 2009-06-10 08:57:09 UTC
strings added for day of week (already translated) and month (not yet translated)

short date format added as an advanced setting so Dot Matrix clock can alternatively show MM.DD.YYYY instead of DD.MM.YYYY

24h clock user setting supported on all applicable clocks
Weekstart of Monday or Sunday supported on (currently disabled) Radial Clock

except for translations to get from SLT, r6055 is final checkin to fix this
