Date/Time Dialog

The Date/Time dialog

The Date/Time dialog allows setting the date and time for a number of different options through selecting the desired date from a calendar:

  • The Left green arrow button.png Left and Right green arrow button.png Right arrows allow the user to change to one month earlier or later (respectively).
  • The month name at the top of the calendar is a drop-down menu allowing the user to select the desired month.
  • The year at the top of the calendar allows the year to be changed up or down using the Increment up and down arrows.png Increment Up/Down buttons.
  • The time is either manually entered in "HH:MM AM/PM" format, or selected using the Increment up and down arrows.png Increment Up/Down buttons.

The following buttons are found at bottom of the dialog:

  • OK – Saves all changes and closes the Date/Time dialog.
  • Cancel – Discards all changes and closes the Date/Time dialog.
