[0.31: DONE] Date format in table view?

Feedback and Requests
1

Hi all,

if I want to create a raw data table, the date fields are shown as “Monday, dd.mm.yyyy: time”. How can I format the date column in table view, so that date fields are listed in the format “dd.mm.yyyy”?
The underlying dataset is a MS-SQL-Server table and the type of the date field is “shortdatetime”.

Any suggestions?

thanks & regards

Unfortunately there isn’t currently a way to change that formatting. I thought it might be possible by futzing around with the metadata type setting for the field in the admin panel, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

We’d welcome a pull request or a new GitHub issue if you feel strongly about this feature.

I was wondering if there has been any more thought to how dates re formated and displayed?
