Date/time functions
#1

When using ‘get_date_time ,with output format HH;MM AM/PM, you still get 24-hour times - e.g. 17:24

The docs for the convert functions are wrong, inconsistent.
Some use ‘output’ for the location for the result (correct), but ‘convert time’ uses ‘output’ for the format of output,
And it uses ‘formatoutput’ for the location, …….

I'm unable to reproduce this. If you are still experiencing an issue with this action, can you show the arguments you are using and demonstrate the issue in a video? You can post it here or email it to: support@canelasoftware.com

Thank you for pointing out corrections that need to be made to the dictionary entries for the above actions. I've made these revisions to the "convert" actions in the "date/time" category and they will be released in the next Appli IDE and Player update.
