Date columns format [CLOSED]

Post by moonrak » Sun Aug 13, 2017 9:21 pm

Hi,
How can I force NC to always show 2 digits for the month?
I mean, today is Aug 13th, 2017.
Date format is dd/mm/yy so the date is shown as 13/8/17.
I would like to see it as 13/08/17.
Can it be done?
Carlos
P.S/: 13/08/2017 would be even nicer

Hi moonrak,

Yes, you can, but this change will be system-wide.
NC follows a localized time formatting scheme, it's defined in System Preferences:

Basically, any date/time format can be constructed there.

Hey Mike,
You are right!
After four years of using my Mac mini I had never realized of this setting.
Months are now shown in 2 digits format.
Thanks,
Carlos
