Release 8. Half way fix of datetime format ?

[zweistein]

Hello , in R8 release I note you say under Fixed 4562: DateTime format were erroneously set to MM/dd/YY regardless of country settings.

As of my testings this bug is not fixed. It is only fixed for the data box. But it is not fixed for the X-Axis Dates (which is only displayed on daily or weekly bar periods).

Attacched a screen dump of the error. Please note the wrong X-Axis date format.
PC time zone and format etc is set to Italy.

Thanks Andreas, I'll clarify this find with development and let you know here.

Also: same outcome for you if you set the daily date label in the properties of the chart to dd/MM/yyyy ?

I can report the same issue, and I have daily date set to dd/MM/yyyy in chart properties

@Bertrand,

what you suggest does work for daily bars only.
On 60 min bars my datetime on the x-axis stays with the inverted US format MM/dd.
It should be dd/MM

Andreas, I can see that here on my German OS install, too - will check with my developers into.

Paul - can you shut NT7 down and delete your remove your UI.xml file from the Documents > NinjaTrader7 folder - then restart NT7 and recheck the charts label, still the same outcome?

X-Axis Date format

Hello,


On the X-Axis of a chart, the date format is MM/DD. Is there a way I can get the YY also? If I have a chart over a few years then its not easy to find out to which year a specific MM/DD belong to. Can you please let me know if there is way I can display YYYY on the X-Axis?


Thank you.


Csk.

Unfortunately this would not be possible Csk, you could only format the label / cursor flag for non intraday bars to you liking in the Chart Properties. I will log your request though for sure as new feature suggestion in our product enhancement lists, thanks for the submission.
