[Bug 674079] Re: Changing en_US Date Format does not change format in GUI

 

This could be a workaround (it worked for me) if you want international date format ISO 8601 YYYY-MM-DD in the Linux GTK client:
- Add a new language. Call it English Custom or something like that. Choose as language code en_DK. (this has international date format %Y-%m-%d)
- Change the date format to %Y-%m-%d so that printed reports also get this format.
- If you make the language translatable and synchronize terms you have the added advantage that you can use some of your own English terms in the interface.
- Change the language of the users to English Custom for those that want an English interface.
- Restart the server and presto! you should now see all dates in international format in the views. But unfortunately only in the Linux GTK client, not the web client nor the windows client.

Title:
  Changing en_US Date Format does not change format in GUI

Status in OpenObject GTK Client:
  In Progress
Status in OpenObject Web Client:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Created new company on trunk rc60
Changed Translations->Language->en_US date format to d/m/y
restarted client and webclient.
New login.
Date format still m/d/y in Webclient and GTK client - incorrect.
Printing a report renders d/m/y - correct

I think it has to do with legacy code for en_US as a default language.
