Recurring formatter "Time Parts: End" setting doesn't do anything?

Created on 21 September 2023, almost 2 years ago

My goal is to use the Recurring formatter to display a Smart Date with date and start time, but not the end time -- so in trying variations on the different Recurring formatter settings, the Time Parts: End setting doesn't seem to work the way it does if I switch to using the Smart Date formatter instead. Specifically:

  • If I use the Recurring formatter and un-check the End checkbox, it WILL show the end time. Example: Fri, Sep 22 2023, 10 - 10:30am
  • If I use the Smart Date formatter and un-check the End checkbox, it WON'T show the end time. Example: Fri, Sep 22 2023, 10am

In both cases, I'm using the same Smart Date Format, default (Wed, Sep 20 2023, 10:10 - 11:10pm).

Apologies if there is an obvious way to output something like "Fri, Sep 22 2023, 10am" (no end time) that I'm missing.

    I also came across this also.

    I looked into it a bit and the issues looks to be that the SmartDateRecurringFormatter viewElements function, which also uses the SmartDateRecurtTrait, doesn't make use of the Time Parts settings at all. It looks like the Daily Range formatter would have the same problem too.

    The other formatters which use SmartDatePluginTrait and SmartDateTrait do use the Time Parts settings in the rending.
