Created attachment 163895 [details] Screnshots showing settings and the digital clock SUMMARY Digital clock doesn't follow the system wide time format. The same issue was marked as fixed in 5.27.4 but for me it happens in 5.27.8 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395048 (My goal was to set it to 24 hours with a leading 0 -- ie: 09:45 instead of 9:45 or 9:45 AM) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set a time format on settings to something other than en_US (easiest way to see the bug is a 24 hour locale) 2. Add a digital clock 3. Set the digital clock to Use Region Defaults 4. Restart Plasmashell in case the locale needs to be loaded OBSERVED RESULT It ignores the locale completely, it ignores leading 0s and even 12/24 hours settings EXPECTED RESULT It should format the time the same as it's displayed in System Settings > Region & Language > Time I attached a screenshot showing the applet settings, locale settings, and applet SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Kubuntu 23.10 KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.110.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-13-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 8 × AMD FX(tm)-8320 Eight-Core Processor Memory: 31.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon RX 470 Graphics Manufacturer: NOVATECH LTD Product Name: PC-X006665 System Version: V1.0
As far as I know, user has to log out and log back in to get the locale reloaded. Restarting plasmashell is not enough.
