Please clarify: Do you want a third combo box for (new) applications asking that they do not need the year, or do you want additional entries in the existing combo boxes, so that the short date format is automatically used by (existing) applications? I thought of adding an additional field where one can configure the (very) short date format. This new date format can than be used by applications. In case of kbirthday list, it would ask for the new date format, and use this format (instead of having its own date format settings tab). The date and time tab in system settings (module locale) has the following fields (with my proposal added and marked as <new>): Time format: AM-sign: PM-sign: Long date format: WEEKDAY dD MONTH YYYY Short date format: DD/MM/YY <new> Very short date format: DD/MM Number set: The very short date format can be (in some countries): dd.mm. So, just having an indicator to leave the year may not give a good result. As in some other countries it could be dd.mm Hence my proposal for new field, that can be populated as one desires... I hope the previous and this update makes it clear, what my wish is. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 297913 *** |
