Description Christophe Marin 2008-04-13 18:06:03 UTC 
Version:            (using 4.00.69 (KDE 4.0.69 >= 20080410), compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-15-generic

kdebase rev. 796267

It is not possible to set the digital clock widget to prevent the timezone from being displayed :


Testcase :

- RMB on Digital Clock,
- "Timezones" tab
- Uncheck "Use local Timezone"
- Back on "Appearance" tab
- Uncheck "Show timezone"
- Click "apply"

Show timezone is then checked again and still displayed in the widget.

s/hided/hidden sorry.
Comment 2 Christophe Marin 2008-05-22 11:18:13 UTC 
Can't reproduce anymore in trunk, closing.
Comment 3 Diederik van der Boor 2009-01-28 14:50:56 UTC 
This bug seams to occur in KDE 4.2.0 again. Unchecking the "show timezone" does not hide the timezone.

I'm running KDE: 4.2.00 (KDE 4.2.0) "release 82.2" at openSUSE 11.1.
Comment 4 Christophe Marin 2009-01-28 15:07:28 UTC 
it can hardly be the same issue since the "Use local Timezone" was removed.

Can you please indicate how you reproduce the issue ?
Comment 5 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2009-01-28 15:11:01 UTC 
Diederik as default you should not have "Show Timezone" checked anyway.

Can you explain better what's happening for you exactly? What timezone is not hidden?
Comment 6 Aaron J. Seigo 2009-01-28 15:16:37 UTC 
the timezone is shown whenever the not-default-timezone is shown. this prevents confusion when the timezone is changed, e.g. by scroll wheeling over the clock.

if that is what is being referred to, then it's a purposeful feature that "show timezone" only applies to the default timezone for the clock

The clock applets kept showing "Local" as timezone, even if I unchecked the option.  This doesn't seam to happen anymore after I've upgraded to the latest patch-release of the packages in the openSUSE repository. So that bug seams to be FIXED.

> The timezone is shown whenever the not-default-timezone is shown.
In that case, the checkbox could also be named "Show the word Local on the clock" :-)

Or the checkbox could be removed, because it seams logical to me too to show a timezone if you add a clock for a different area. (for example, a sales guy which has clocks for "New york", "China", and his normal time).
Comment 8 Diederik van der Boor 2009-02-04 10:52:35 UTC 
..or the checkbox could be named "Also show timezone for local time".
