annotationDateStyle

This parameter determines the date format that is used for date and dateonly values in the annotationStamp parameter. The annotationDateStyle parameter also alters the date format that is displayed in the sticky note dialog box.

You can specify the data format as either long or short. Although the exact format is determined by the user's regional settings, the following examples illustrate the difference in these formats:
  • long: 24 September, 2002, 13:00:01, GMT+01:00
  • short: 24-Sep-02, 13:00:01, GMT+01:00

The annotationDateStyle parameter takes the additional value medium, and stamps the correct date and time format to the <date> and <dateonly> identifiers, depending on which value is chosen.

The following examples show the three available formats for the English (en) locale with the <date> identifier:
  • Long: August 12, 2019, 15:26:45 UTC+1
  • Medium: Aug 12, 2019, 15:26:45
  • Short: 8/12/19, 15:26

If you select either the medium or short values, the timezone is removed from the annotation stamp.
