Description

This property is available for attributes and variables based on the DateTime data type to set which divisions of an hour to use.

In addition, depending on the value set in the Precision property for the attribute/variable based on the DateTime data type, the Hour format property will offer different values.  

If the Precision property = Seconds, the Hour format property will offer the values:

  • Only hour (hh)
  • Hour and minutes (hh:mm)
  • Hour, minutes and seconds (hh:mm:ss)

On the other hand, if the Precision property = Milliseconds, the Hour format property will offer the value:

  • Hour, minutes, seconds and milliseconds (hh:mm:ss:fff)
     

Note: It is possible to handle milliseconds as from GeneXus 15 Upgrade 11. So, this property starts offering the "Hour, minutes, seconds and milliseconds (hh:mm:ss.fff)" value in the same version.

Runtime/Design time

This property applies only at design-time.
