I changed the TZ from the top ribbon and: 1. Shell/date sees the new TZ, as before 2. The icon in the ribbon loses its display settings, both tooltip and normal display. 3. If I try to reset things in the Properties menu the new settings only remain until I close the properties window. They then reset to null. $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial ---------------------------- More info: After a logout/login I still could not change the settings. After removing the clock from the top ribbon and re-adding it worked OK. I have now changed the TZ back and again lost the display. Changing any property seems a bit flaky. Sometimes it takes, sometimes it does not. I tried to change the TZ back and lost it, removed/added the clock and this time is took. I then had trouble changing the display and tooltip formats. Eventually they took. No idea why it sometimes works and sometimes not. I am now in the strange situation where the clock thinks it is 12:53 and the shell thinks it is 14:53, with a new shell. I shall try another logout/login. -------------------------------- After logout/login I still have different TZs in the clock on the ribbon and in the shell. There is no TZ environment variable. When I changed the TZ in the clock I did it two different ways. The first time I used the drop-down list, and this lost the display. The second time I typed the new TZ into the text box; this landed me with the inconsistent TZ settings. Digging around, I see that /etc/localtime has the wrong setting. Another try: Change the TZ using the geographic map, then select more accurately from the drop-down. This sticks and is consistent with the shell. I can change the display format OK. Trying to change the tooltip format (defaults to custom with a blank format) loses both the tooltip and the display formats. -------------------------------- -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1534076 Title: clock applet does not change displayed time on change of TZ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-panel/+bug/1534076/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
