------- Additional comments from argh...@openoffice.org Thu Sep 3 19:17:05 +0000 2009 ------- The header/footer dialog in Impress allows the use of automatic variable (current? or last saved?) date/time, but only a few formats. Please add the ability to use custom formats. If OpenOffice runs on top of Java, why can't you support the formatting options of java.text.SimpleDateFormat? http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html I would like to configure date/time as "Thu 3 Sep 2009 14:59" or "September 3, 2009 14:59" or whatever format I feel like using for a given presentation. There's no way you can cover all the reasonable date/time formats, so please offer a way for users with reasonable skills to use custom date/time formats. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
