Overlay's clock

[uni790]

Is there any way to get it back to a proper 12 hour setup?

There should be a Steam option under either Interface or in-game Overlay about 12-hour / 24-hour clock format.

I'm having this problem. Changing the setting in interface is having no effect (24 hour time is disabled by default. I tried turning it on and off and it's still displaying in 24hr)

That setting is for the chat's timestamps(that nobody I know of uses, lol), not the actual clock, having searched steam high and low, I have to assume steam thinks everyone in the world runs on military time.

the setting fixed overlay clock for me i have normal 12 hr format again, ofc i did have to restart steam after making the change

Ok so I tried again. Switching the setting on and off. I even switched the setting on, restarted steam, switched it back off, restarted steam again and still nothing. Hopefully it's fixed soon or someone else has some way to fix it.

I can read 24 hour time just fine, just always makes me do a double take when I check the time because I'm so used to seeing 12hr time there.

I don't even have a 12/24 hour setting in my Interface.

Yes in fact everyone do use a 24 hour system. It is litteraly the international system.

For the general US population, the default is 12 hour.

For other services like Military and select other services, they use 24 hour.

And Canadian population!

But anyways, this bug is weird. BEFORE 12pm, if you switch 24hr setting ON, it'll add a 0 infront of the time. (so like 09:30) If you turn it off, it'll get rid of the 0. However, starting at noon, the setting doesn't have any effect and will just display 12-23hrs. Very strange...

So the setting DOES effect the clock, but only until noon for some weird reason and then it forces 24hr time.

not a big priority but volvo pls fix. (also very strange since Valve is a US-based company)
