Different Date Formats for Created, Modified, and Accessed

Post by eurytos »

I did some forum/wiki searches and I also poked around the ini file but I didn't have much luck finding a solution to my problem.

I would like to be able to have a different date view for the created, modified, and accessed columns but it looks like it is all or nothing. For the create and accessed columns the date-time view is great but I would like the modified column to be displayed using the show age.


Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,

yep, you found the truth: it's currently not possible. It might look easy to do, but it would need quite some code shuffling on my side. Also the GUI and documentation would need some make-up. Since you are the first ever to ask for this in all those years (and those functions are VERY old) I have to say: later, man, much later... :wink:

thanks for your review!

He's not the first!

There is a thread asking for this (with a similar response from you), somewhere buried in the forums.

I did find it once when I was thinking of asking the same thing. (But I'm too lazy to look now.)

But I'll add my vote to this as well. Something nice for maybe v7.6? :D

Not to worry! Just an introduction to how we operate here! Sometimes a bit of friendly banter back and forth! Stick around, you'll get hooked like the rest of us and you won't be able to stay away for more than a day, or you'll get behind on beta releases!
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

j_c is right: nothing but a bit of fun! No offending or such in any way!
(As Don said in another post: just kidding 8) )
