Hi... I've realized the date format on the systemtray is not customizable, nor respects the local international configuration.... Can this be edited somewhere?
Thanks

No, they can't be configured, both the date and the time are displayed in the short format specified for LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT . |

Since I'm very familiar the dd-MMM-yy format, I thought I'd give this a try. The NextSTART date is also not picking up the system's short date setting. See the image below. I'm running Windows 10 version 1803 (build 17134.165).  I wanted to chime in with this before you finalized the version you're working on now, Jorge. |

Ok, you guys are right, sorry. The API calls were indeed using the LOCALE_USER_DEFAULT format, but for some reason they were also using the LOCALE_NOUSEROVERRIDE flag which basically threw away user preferences - and I only noticed it now when looking again into this. No idea why it was like that, it's a years old piece of code. Fixed, should be working fine in the next release. |

It's strange. Is that NoUserOverride only applicable to the date, because the time change worked fine. I had switched my system's time to 24-hour format while playing with the date and the time change worked but the date didn't. |

For some reason I also had code there set to deliberately change a '-' date separator into '/'.  Probably a left over from the Win9x days lol

Thanks for letting me know!  Have you already tried the new vertical shelves, multiple shelves and shelf scaling abilities? There's also a new thing called 'Drawers'
