Properties: let the user customize the way Dates/Times are displayed (independently from OS)

+1 Same problem with displayed date here.

  • Windows 10Pro x64 latest todate
  • Windows in US locales but tweaked (as I do not like US non-logical format) so system tray uses ISO format YYYY-MM-dd 2023-12-07 (+24hr format HH:mm with leading zeroes)
  • Obsidian installed to Win with those settings (so date was set before obsidian appeared in), Obsidian used daily and Win daily started and shutdown, plenty of opportunities to learn date/time format
  • date in note created by Templater into note via <% tp.date.now() %> results in same date format as for file property type date I made manually = mm/dd/yyyy. And in view mode it shows in US form like 12/07/2023 … However in Source mode I see ISO date-created: 2023-12-07 ! So internally it somehow works, but there is display bug.
  • Chrome page shows ISO
