Display Date/Time fields in military time

AlfredBaldenweck — Mon, 28 Mar 2022 20:27:15 GMT

Hi all,

I'm digitizing a bunch of input data that uses military time and I'd like to just use that when creating my features.

Is it possible to set the date/time field to show military (24hr) format?

Thanks!

In Pro, it seems to follow your machine's settings. I always keep my system clock on 24 hour time, and when working with time data in Pro, I see 24 hour formatting on date fields.

Thanks Josh, that was it. I just had to restart Pro for the changes to occur.

The 24-hour military time system is helpful in keeping track of time. You can easily convert different time zones around the world. On the other hand, it also helps prevent miscommunication.
