Created attachment 150969 [details] Panel Digital Clock Settings vs clock settings available in "spectacle" Configuring the format of the digital clock in the panel is less than ideal: You have to choose the "format" implicitly associated with a country. But what is that format? What if you don't want that but prefer another system? By contrast, in spectacle for example, the filename accepts a date-time format string (sadly, and very confusingly, the codes are not the same as the ones used by date(1), which should also be fixed 😞 ) Maybe one could foresee the possibility of having a date-time format string for the clock widget too; maybe it can be pulled out of regional settings at first, but then be freely editable. See the configuration possibilities in the attached image
