Changing the date format in the left list

[Emphyrio 2]

Hello,

 

Simple question I didn't find the answer to.

How can I change the way the dates are displayed in the left list?

I just want to have ALL the dates in the same format and nothing like "Yesterday", "X minutes ago", etc.

Thank you

Patrick

If you mean the panel headed 'Notes' I don't believe you can.

Thank you for your answer. That's what I thought.

I'm wondering how somehow can think that having different display formats in the same column can make things easier to read... And what's more, I'm sure it was probably discussed in a meeting by several people.

Well, I actually guess that "X minutes ago" or "Yesterday" is ok. It can be helpful to find the most recent notes.

But I don't like things like 6 june instead of a full date is not "user friendly". And more: I like to have 4 digits for the year.

It’s a UI decision how to display the date in the notes view. To get it changed, you need to go through support.

I use dates in the titles of my notes - as in: 20231010 - so sorting alphabetically by title gives me a timeline.

Yes, I also do that for some notes.
