24 hour format not displaying correctly
I have changed the time format to 24 hour view but the hours are displaying e.g. "1200" "1500" , not "12:00" "15:00" etc. - the ":" is missing. I am sorry if there is such thread already but I couldn't find it. Thank you :)

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
We initially added support for our friends in the US military.
And, as wikipedia will confirm:

In some contexts (e.g., U.S. military, some computer protocols), no separator is used (e.g., 2359)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24-hour_clock

I suppose we can make this an option, or we can add the colon and see if anyone objects wink

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
It will be great if you add colon between hours and minutes in 24-hour format. It's more common to see a colon (or a dot) between hours and minutes where this time format is used.

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
We actually do support this already (this thread was from 2012 wink

), we just need someone to tell us the 12 and 24 hour time formats for their country, and we can customize it (if we haven't already)

escola-brasil, I see your location is Russia - is HH:MM the correct 24-hr time format for Russia, or would you prefer a period? HH.MM ?

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
Thank you for your answer.

In Russia we use both (HH:MM and HH.MM) 24-hr time format. I think HH:MM is more correct.

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
In that case - you should be set. The 24-hour time format for Russia should already display as HH:MM. I also checked your public calendar view to confirm this is the case.

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
Update: I found out that in pop-up window with event information the time format changed from 24-hour to 12-hour confused

Re: 24 hour format not displaying correctly
Sorry about that! We had a typo in the database. You should be all set now.
