Hide time in Table widget

[AmyRoust]

I'm using the Table widget in Experience Builder (the online version, not developer edition). My date fields are displaying the time, and I'm wondering if there is a way to hide that? Time is irrelevant for this dataset - they just need to track the date.

Hi @AmyRoust! I am having the same exact problem. I've formatted the field to not show time everywhere I can think, but Experience Builder still shows the time. The only other place the time is visible is in the Content > Item Details > Data. The Table Widget must pull directly from the data source and ignore all formatting done in Map Viewer (even though the widget data is sourced from the map which is formatted correctly). 

Have you found a solution to your problem?

[AmyRoust]

Unfortunately, I have not found a solution. I prefer to use the Edit widget when I am updating that dataset because of that specific issue, but my end user manages the entire program and sometimes needs to update several sites at once. I submitted an ArcGIS Idea yesterday that included this request.

Did you find a way to get the Edit widget to not show the time? Or is it just easier to edit because of how it's broken up?

[AmyRoust]

I think the latter, @RobertAnderson3. I changed jobs since my last post, so I can't check to be sure, but I think it was just easier in the Edit widget because it split out the time and date.

Any updates on that? I'm trying to migrate from WAB to Experience Builder...

I just checked the site that I had the issue on - the table is still displaying times and I don't see a button to suppress that or honor the SmartForms settings. As far as I know, this enhancement has not been implemented.

Amy, did you make an official enhancement request or another post as @TonghuiMing suggested? I am running into the same issue; my end user wasn't able to save changes in a date field without entering a time as well, even though all other places the referenced dataset appears has the time toggled off. Not a big deal as they can just enter a time, but I'd prefer to just not see it at all, same as you.

[AmyRoust]

I did make an enhancement request, but I made the mistake of putting two requests in one Idea: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-experience-builder-ideas/tablet-widget-add-quot-update-quot-but.... I really ought to split them into two different ideas, per Esri's instructions.

It appears this issue has not been resolved.

Hi @ShengdiZhang I see the same behavior with the Timeline widget. 

Time setting not honored via Map Viewer. Is there another way to disable the Times and show dates only?
