Is it possible to change the date format on the codename one Picker to show only the year in full e.g 2014 or 1990 ? As of now it has this date format "M/d/yy" which in turn gives a date such as "Oct 15 2014" to "10/15/14". Is there a way to change this date format?
This looks differently on the devices. The picker is implemented natively there.
In case anyone is still looking, The Picker has a getDate(), with this you can use the CNILIB on formating.
String datestring=(new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd")).format(picker.getDate())

I would think this is relatively straight forward but cant find documentation on how to do it(or the correct syntax to use) and my messing around hasn't worked so far.
For Dates we have a custom format called Month /Day /Year. This pulls back a the date(as a date type) in date format as such:
"14 April 2003"
The code behind this is:
(DATEPART('year', [Close Date])*10000 + DATEPART('month', [Close Date])*100 + DATEPART('day', [Close Date]))
What I want to get back is the month is numeric format like:
"14.04.2003"
Is it simply changing the "month" part in the code to a different type? Has any one come across this?
Cheers
lampbob, I'd just use date formatting which will mean you will still be able to use all the date-fields flexibility that Tableau provides.
Select Custom format with the following input:
dd.mm.yyyy
See the screen below for more details:
This can be easily achieved using the 'Format' option in Tableau. Here are the steps to follow to format the date field as you have specified.
Add Date field to your Rows/Columns field on a Tableau worksheet.
Set the format of the Date to be DAY(Date).
Click on options for 'DAY(Date)' and go to 'Format...'
On the Format DAY(Date) panel, go to Scale -> Dates.
Select 'Custom' option and type in 'mm.dd.yyyy'. Now the date will be in the string format you need.

String format for date,
Changing to 'DAY' and 'Format...'
If you are only concerned about how the date is presented, then leave the datatype as a date, and use a custom format string via the format pane to display it as desired.
Followed your advice and just had to change the date pill, in the column field, to a continuous value. Then right clicked -> format -> Scale -> custom. Then used the above suggested format setting. Thanks Petr, woodhead92.
I want to set up Zebra datepicker plugin in a way that it has enabled all past dates up to certain specified date. I found out this stackoverflow post that explains how to do that if that border date is today. But, if the border date is lets say 1 month in the past or so, how should I define the "direction" option?
So basically I want to restrict date selection from the "beginning of time" up to some specified date.
Thank you
As you can see they described it in the documentation. Try out this code:
$('#datepicker-example5').Zebra_DatePicker({
// remember that the way you write down dates
// depends on the value of the "format" property!
direction: ['2012-08-01', '2012-08-12']
});
The example is listed in topic "Demos" (Sub-Topic 5) here: http://stefangabos.ro/jquery/zebra-datepicker/
Look at this code,
DateBox myDateBox=new DateBox();
myDateBox.getDatePicker().setYearAndMonthDropdownVisible(true);
DateTimeFormat dateFormat = DateTimeFormat.getFormat("DD-MM-YYYY");
myDateBox.setFormat(new DateBox.DefaultFormat(dateFormat));
Ok, when I clicked on the DateBox the DatePicker got popped up but I could not see years like from 1600, so How to add more years into DatePicker?
Alos, I want to use the format to DD-MM-YYYY when a date was selected but when clicked on a date nothing appeared in the DateBox?
For years like 1600, I cannot help you. But for the format, perhaps the problem is capitalization. I think you should use the format
DateTimeFormat dateFormat = DateTimeFormat.getFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
Google sheets default date format is 11/05/2014 I want it be like 12-Apr-2014
I already have done date format change but its not working.
Can anyone please tell me how do I change it?
Thanks
The formula would be
=TEXT(A1, "DD-MMM-YYYY")
This is considering that your date is in cell A1.
I'm trying to set the format for a jquery datepicker element with the date format returned by Zend_Locale::getTranslationList('date', $locale);
My problem is zend returns the string 'dd/MM/yyyy' for the date format but jquery expects only 2 characters for the year ie 'dd/mm/yy', so it enters the year twice 20112011
Is there some option that can be passed to either zend or jquery to make them work in the same manner? I've read through the docs and can't seem to find anything
Many thanks for your help in advance!
I have used jquery date picker in python-django framework when I give date format as dd/mm/yyyy format it returns 20112011 then i have corrected it to dd/mm/yy and it returned 2011 only. you can specify in your datepicker css class to specify the date format as dd/mm/yy.
Iam not sure if this is what you're looking for but:
// use german local, change it to our needs :-)
$locale = new Zend_Locale('de_DE');
$result = Zend_Locale::getTranslationList('date', $locale);
// returns dd.MM.yy (german!)
echo $result['short'];
