Hello everyone,

I have a datetime field and i want to format it to hours, minutes, seconds in the form view.

Is this posible, and how to do it?

Thanks.

Note: I'm not wanna do this for all datetime field on the website, i just wanna make this for that field only.

As far as i can research, we can use this as alternative solution:


1. Change the field from `Datetime` to `Float`:
your_field = fields.Float(string='Your Field')


2. Then, in the form view, add `widget="float_time"`:


With this, there's no popup to show (It's bad, i know).

But as i mentioned before, this solution is just a alternative solution until we find better solution.

Other answers are welcome.


Note for the report view or email view, we can use this: 

t-options="{'widget': 'float_time'}"


Thanks.

Hi,

If you need to change the date time format everywhere inside the database, you can change it from language.
