Howdy, Looking at the JavaDoc for PatternLayout, it says: "The date format specifier admits the same syntax as the time pattern string of the SimpleDateFormat. Although part of the standard JDK, the performance of SimpleDateFormat is quite poor."
Looking at the JavaDoc for SimpleDateFormat, I don't see a simple way to do what you ask. It has the S character for milliseconds, but I think that's milliseconds within the current second, so "SSS" in the format pattern will always range from 000-999. And that's not what you want. So the answer to your original question, AFAIK, is not automatically with the built-in formats and appenders. You can obviously extend an Appender to do this, or write a Renderer to do this as well.
