When using the datetime user parameter in FME Form/Flow, the viewer where the user chooses the date ranges from Sunday-Sunday. As a swedish user, our calendar system is in line with ISO 8601 standard and starts with Monday-Monday. Being accustomed to this format, it is possible for a user to choose wrong date in a Sunday-Sunday formatted calendar.

 

I would like a functionality for the datetime user parameter to switch between a Sunday-Sunday and Monday-Monday calendar.

Hi ​@erik.ahlm 

If this helps, the week start in the calendar controls depend on the First day of week system settings.

In Windows:

Control Panel → Clock and Region → Region → Additional settings… button → Date tab

or:

Settings → Time & Language → Language & Region → Regional format → Change formats button 

(Sorry, I have no access to Linux now)

 

Does it help, or are you after overriding the system settings?

Hi ​@revesz 

Thank you for your reply!

I have configured calendar as Monday-Monday on my windows - and most of my applications, including FME Form, is viewing calendar in this way. However, when choosing a date from datetime user parameter in FME Flow, the calendar viewer is showing Sunday-Sunday.
