Could we have the option to use the full name for the days of the week and month?
At the moment its, Mon 2 Jan at 10:00AM - doesn’t look professional. Could someone look into this and change it or have the option to use the full names likes, Monday 2nd January at 10:00am.

 

Thank you! :)

Hi ​@Tercia,

At the moment in Dentally the date format used (e.g. Mon 2 Jan) is fixed, and there isn’t an option to switch to full day/month names like “Monday 2nd January”.

 

There are  however a few related display options ou can customise, such as:

  • switching between 12-hour and 24-hour time format

  • enabling relative dates (e.g. Today / Tomorrow)

    You can find these under your username (top right) → My account → Display Options.

I’ll log this as a feature request for the product team to review 😊

 

Thanks again for the suggestion!

Thank you for mentioning this! Drives me nuts seeing the abbreviated text!
