Show seconds on parameter prompt?

[ct]

Scenario: I have a datetime field as an input parameter. I default it to the current datetime (private DateTime resetTime = DateTime.Now to get a base time format to display. For example it will show "4/10/2014 12:18 AM" on the indicator prompt window. I can change the value to "4/10/2014 12:18:05" to pass seconds and it works.

Question: Can it be made display the seconds on the prompt? example: "4/10/2014 12:18:05"?

ct, you probably look for something like this -

private string myInputTime = DateTime.Now.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss");
