11.1p/12.0d: Calendar time format in German locale wrong

[Blama]

Hi Isomorphic,

thanks a lot. I think its a good change and can see it working here (SNAPSHOT_v12.0d_2018-03-17).

While I get the setting for this in getlocalization.com (time_use24HourTime), I think an explanation in the docs for this might be valuable, because it's the first time I've seen a setting in the localization (and of course I should not translate it to "Wahr", but set it to either "true" or "false").

Best regards

Globally, times have always been formatted (by default) in 12-hour format - you don't see this in TimeItems because they have a use24HourTime attribute which defaults to true.

We've made a few changes here - there is now a global setting, isc.Time.use24HourTime, which appears in the language packs and defaults to true.

As of builds of 12.0 dated March 16, setting this will alter both TimeItems and all aspects of Calendars accordingly - setting TimeItem.use24HourTime or Calendar.twentyFourHourTime locally overrides the global value.

Hi Isomorphic,

I'd think that this should be handled in the framework automatically.
Thinking about it, I wonder why in e.g. this sample the time controls in English locale don't use am/pm, but hours 0-23.

The AM/PM strings are settable in the locales:

    time_AMIndicator: 'vormittags',
    time_PMIndicator: 'nachmittags',

To prevent those being shown, you can set calendar.timeFormatter.

Actually, this applies everywhere in Calendar/Timeline, e.g. also when editing an calendar event:

Hi Isomorphic,

please see this sample (v11.1p_2018-03-10) and all other Calendar samples.
The default time format in German is e.g. "01:00nachmittags", but it should read "13:00".
