Date management

Global configuration

Within the FlowerDocs GUI, several date formats can be defined:

  • In forms using the gui.date.form property
  • In table columns using the gui.date.table property
  • For technical information popups gui.date.technical
  • For other locations, use the gui.date.display property

For more information on the different formats supported, please consult this.

Example:

In a form, to obtain dates of the type 01/12/2016, the gui.date.form=dd/MM/yyyy property must be defined. This type of date makes it easier to enter dates manually without using the DatePicker object.

Date format configuration by tag class or tag reference

In a Date tag class or a Date tag reference, it is possible to use a custom date format from supported date formats. Format internationalization is managed by the application.
