On current git master with > LC_TIME=el_GR.UTF-8 and a 12-hour clock I get "8:37 Μ.Μ." instead of "8:37 > PM". It still uses the upper-case form, because the clock asks for > upper-case AM/PM. The other points are tracked separately: a custom time > format in bug 393956, and the missing leading zero in 24-hour mode in bug > 517262. Thanks so much for the response! FWIW, I am running Plasma 6.7.4 now. There is some localization happening indeed now, thank you for that too! A couple of things (that I'm not sure belong here or in another bug): - Configuring time display to 12-Hour or "region defaults" drops the whitespace between date and time now. I see "25/10/26105:58 Π.Μ.", "2026-10-2510:58 Π.Μ." etc. This is not the case with the 24-Hour setting, which shows up normally (= space between date and time). - You mentioned above that "It still uses the upper-case form, because the clock asks for upper-case AM/PM" -- this may be the underlying cause here, but that's not addressing the fact that this is not the standard form and, as such, the field is not localized adequately. IMHO locale-adjusted capitalization is a part of l10n/i18n. I am Greek and I don't think I've ever seen Π.Μ. and Μ.Μ. ever capitalized in any user interface. I have only seen Π.Μ/Μ.Μ. very rarely capitalized, and always in the context of an all-caps title. In this case, the date component, e.g. in the case of long date, is not capitalized (and it shouldn't be!), so it's not an all-caps field; capitalizing the time but not the date is incorrect. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
