Detailed Date/Time presentation settings.
The sample date and time information shown in this dialog box corresponds to the
actual date and time of your system clock.
Date
Select the format you want the date strings to be displayed in from the Format
control. To set the frequency for the date string to be displayed, enter a value into
the corresponding text field.
Time
Select the time format you want to display from the Format control.
GMT offset
The specified value will be added to the time that is displayed on screen.
Time Zero
Time is counted in seconds and stored as floating point value inside WellCAD. To
avoid touching the limits of the floating-point data type, the seconds are added to a
time zero position. The time zero is by default set to the first value found in the
document but can be altered using the corresponding text fields. Changing the
values will shift the data. For your orientation, the original time zero set at import
time is displayed at the bottom of the dialog box.
Please note that the lowest value that can be set for the time zero is the 1 Jan 1970,
00:00:00h.
