Bug ID: 395164 Summary: Allow user to customize timezone (time zone) names Product: plasmashell Version: 5.12.2 Platform: openSUSE RPMs OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: wishlist Priority: NOR Component: Digital Clock Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: psychon...@nothingisreal.com Target Milestone: 1.0 The clock applet has a neat feature which allows the user to keep track of the time in various timezones. The user configures this by selecting the timezones from a list; he can then hover over the clock applet to see other timezones. The name of a city associated with the timezone is displayed next to its time. However, the practice of naming timezones after cities causes a great deal of confusion. I need to keep track of the time in Houston, but there's no timezone named "Houston"; I have to use "Chicago" instead, and then later remember that "Chicago"=Houston when reading the widget's pop-up dialog. This gets very annoying when one has a lot of timezones in one's list. To solve this problem, it would be great to have feature to allow the user to create aliases or nicknames for timezones. Therefore I can configure the clock to display "Houston" for the Chicago timezone and "Toronto" for the New York timezone without having to remember which city is in which arbitrarily-named timezone. Note 1: This bug is a reincarnation of Bug 185337. Note 2: I'm filing this issue against the Digital Clock component, though it probably also applies to the Analogue Clock. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
