Operating Systems OS X (Apple) how to change date and time format in menu bar Post 302420138 by [MA]Flying_Meat on Monday 10th of May 2010 06:22:49 PM

When in doubt, always list what OS version you are using.
Choices are:
Tiger = 10.4.x
Leopard = 10.5.x
Snow Leopard = 10.6.x

It is pretty straight forward in Snow Leopard.
The date formats are listed as, Short, Medium, Long, and Full.

Each can be edited by selecting the dropdown for the month, day, year.
You can add or remove punctuation, and move the elements around by dragging them to their new position.

You cannot drag between formats, but within formats you can make changes.
You could even make them all appear the same (not sure why you would want that, but...)

d_menu_proc(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual					      d_menu_proc(3alleg4)

NAME
d_menu_proc - Dialog procedure implementing a menu bar object. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> int d_menu_proc(int msg, DIALOG *d, int c); DESCRIPTION
This object is a menu bar which will drop down child menus when it is clicked or if an alt+key corresponding to one of the shortcuts in the menu is pressed. It ignores a lot of the fields in the dialog structure, in particular the color is taken from the gui_*_color variables, and the width and height are calculated automatically (the w and h fields from the DIALOG are only used as a minimum size.) The dp field points to an array of menu structures: see do_menu() for more information. The top level menu will be displayed as a horizontal bar, but when child menus drop down from it they will be in the normal vertical format used by do_menu(). When a menu item is selected, the return value from the menu callback function is passed back to the dialog manager, so your callbacks should return D_O_K, D_REDRAW, or D_CLOSE. SEE ALSO
