Make Date Picker use the system date format

[fruitlessnoodle]

Hello,

By default the Date Picker uses m/d/yy as the short-date format. How do I get it to use the system short-date format instead?

Thank you

Hi, ormond-brown practice

The "date" field can be configured to use any date format you so choose, we include a number of default options to select from, but you can also simply type into the "date format" field (IE: mm/dd/yyyy is not available as an option, but you can type it into the text field manually and would see 06/25/2021 today).
This can all be done within the Properties pane (Ctrl+~) when the field is selected:

Kind regards,

Thanks, Daniel. Yes, I am aware that I can format the date. However, it would be ideal if the date could be presented to end users in whatever format they use on their system. Currently I force my preferred format on end users, which is rather presumptuous.

This would be super useful for stuff that has to work internationally,
so that the same document written in America with mm/dd/yyyy goes to dd/mm/yyyy when we open it in the rest of the world.

at the moment when i need to ensure there is no ambiguity I'm forcing people to use SQL style YYYY-MM-DD which is equally annoying for everyone!
