Re: [Geary] changing the hour exibition

[Jim Nelson <jim yorba org>]

Two issues here:

* If you run dconf-editor and look in com.canonical.indicator.datetime, I'm guessing the "time-format" key reads "locale-default".  That's fine, but it means Geary will use a string translated by GNOME's translators into whatever is normally used for that locale.

* Unfortunately, those strings are often overlooked by our translators.  In the case of pt_BR, it's set to 12-hour time.

Two paths forward here:

1. For now, you can set that "time-format" key to "24-hour".

2. We change Geary's time format string to 24-hour, which I assume is customary in Brazil.  Yes?

I suspect the problem is in Configuration.clock_format property. If the "com.canonical.indicator.datetime" schema exists, we use its "time-format" value to determine the format. If not, we use the "org.gnome.desktop.interface" schema's "clock-format" value. The gnome control center adjusts this value when I change the display settings, but Geary is looking at the canonical key and doesn't notice.

We've just fixed this problem in master, but if you're running Unity, it's not the problem you're having. What language are you using? The time format strings are translatable, and could be set incorrectly.
