Long date format in taskbar

lapagalia · 06-13-2021, 12:10 PM

Hi

I am using Deepin with Arch Linux. In the taskbar the time and date info is, for example,

19:05
21/6/13

and I would like it to also show the day of the week, according to the long date format.

How can it be changed?

Thanks in advance.

I've never used it. Read the docs and wiki.

I have not learned anything new.

Thank you.

I was curious about this and looked at the Deepin docs last night and didn't find anything about configuring the date format.

In most DE's, if you right-click on the clock in the taskbar, you get a menu that often included an item for configuring the date format. What happens if you right-click over the clock?

Yes, theoretically, there are options to set the date format in order to set the first day of the week, long date (this is what I want), short date, long time and short time. All these options can be modified and write what you want, but I do not know what it translates into, because the date in the taskbar is still the short format: 21/6/15, for example. Nothing changes.

Short date is the taskbar long date is the tip that pops up, i can't find the way to do it also i want the long date on the taskbar.
