I understand that to some people ISO 8601 is not user/human friendly. Also, further down in the discussion, someone mentioned using local date/time settings, which is also a sensible way of dealing with date/time. There are probably things of higher priority to be taken care of first, but if I

I think there's definitely room for configuring the filebrowser to show ISO-formated dates. We also need to deal with sorting based on date, and many other things. On Mon, Feb 26, 2018 at 10:11 PM Lawrence D’Oliveiro wrote: > On Saturday, February 24, 2018 at 5:55:20 PM

2018-02-23 Thread Brian Granger
I think we are using moment.js. Not sure how I feel about showing users ISO 8601 formatted datetimes though. It is not a particularly human friendly datetime format. Maybe having some sort of toggle in the UI to switch between the moment.js times and a more human friendly variant of the ISO 8601

Probably, If it's using moment.js it's possible, but I haven't touched that part of the code base. We could do something similar as the notebook and switch to iso-date when the file is older than a couple of hours/days. I would suggest opening an issue. On 22 February 2018 at 11:15, Milos

Thanks Matthias! Indeed, there's a tooltip if you hover over current vague time stamp. Is there a way to make this "a xyz ago" malarkey go away and show what's in the tooltip in its place? On Thursday, February 22, 2018 at 1:49:02 PM UTC-5, Matthias Bussonnier wrote: > > I believe if you hover

Hiya, Is there a way in Jupyter Lab to display "Last modified" column in Files tab in ISO 8601 format? Current format of "a xyz ago" is utterly useless. If there isn't a way to do this, where should I have a peek for a PR. Cheers, Miloš. -- You received this message because you are
