[Digikam-users] Set display date format

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

You cannot. it's hardcoded in source code (short ISO format).

- image properties right sidebar :

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/libs/imageproperties/imagepropertiessidebardb.cpp#L596

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/libs/imageproperties/cameraitempropertiestab.cpp#L539

- icon view tooltips :

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/app/utils/tooltipfiller.cpp#L180

https://projects.kde.org/projects/extragear/graphics/digikam/repository/revisions/master/entry/showfoto/thumbbar/showfototooltipfiller.cpp#L153

Note : In KDE4 version of digiKam, KDE API was used. In Qt5 port, Qt
API is used instead.
