What I’m trying to do

Im trying to define new column in Bases which displays Week Day as result from Property “Date” which I add at the time of creation.

Things I have tried

Due to my research “Date” is in Format “date” so to compare or display I need a string. This is working for current file with “this.Date.format(‘ddd’)” the result is “Fri”. However if I try the same for “Date.format(‘ddd’)” it is failing with error “Can not find function “format” on type string”. Any Idea what I do wrong?

Found a Fix and Bug reported earlier.
While I could troubleshoot the output myself using toString I found that my “Date” has different format. I write ((date:DD-MM-YYYY)) than function which I use Date.format(‘ddd’) fails.
As soon I change Date to ((date:YYYY-MM-DD)) all works as expected
