Missing the option to change time format

Enigmoon opened this issue · 2 comments

Hello, thank you for the amazing tool, while customizing my mangohud configurations in goverlay I noticed I couldn't adjust the time format. Currently when I enable time it gives me the time as Hour:Minute:Second in a 24 Hours format. I wanted to customize it to have the Hour:Minute (AM or PM).

Please consider adding a field for time_format, even if we have to write the required options as per https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/manip/put_time (this link is provided in mangohud's github page as a reference for the format used in the time_format command).

I tried doing it through the custom command field but it didn't work for me. I think my only option now is to manually adjust the mangohud configuration file.

Hey @Enigmoon , thanks for the kind words. Currently, i'm rewriting some part of goverlay. I can't promiss this feature for the next release, but will add it to the todo list.

@benjamimgois Your considerations and kind reply are more than sufficient. I wish you the best of luck on your rewrite, and there is no pressure, this feature is not a deal breaker, it is just an added convenience to a tool that already adds a lot of it. Cheers!
