It’s a great idea. How do you propose it be handled? Assuming this is a build based on the current system it will likely have to be compiled in Linux as the obvious choice. Do we have anyone with the appropriate skills in coding C to look into the various server platforms to be compiled for?

You can convert any given date to dateItems. Then you can use dateItems to present the date in any format you like. A date converted to dateItems will give you the following list of items: the year the month number the day of the month the hour in 24-hour time the minute the second the numeric

You could of course also multiply the width of the card with 0.25, 0.5 and 0.75 to get the same results. Personally I prefer multiplication to division, but the results will be the same. Best regards Tore Nilsen > 28. okt. 2020 kl. 21:54 skrev William de Smet via use-livecode > : > > Thanks
