I would agree. Most people in the US would describe that as "broken." The code is currently based on the locale, and it detects based on how your locale is configured. We can change the default locale to be UK English. That might realise a solution to the problem. Or we can change how it is formatted. There's no reason it needs to be "12:42 PM", it could be "12:42 pm" or "12:42p". Or has Jouni mentioned we can us sub or super script. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Unity API bugs, which is subscribed to Indicator Date and Time. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1236288 Title: [indicators] The time indicator should always display time in 24h format Status in The Date and Time Indicator: Incomplete Status in Ubuntu UX bugs: Confirmed Status in The Unity 8 shell: In Progress Bug description: The time indicator should always display time in 24h format to make better use of the available space in the indicator bar.
