Hi;
I can't seem to find any way to change the Fedora 20 KDE time and date settings so that the time is displayed in the 24-hour format like military time. Is this not possible?
Thanks, Ken Wolcott

Bring up the "System Settings" GUI.
Got to "Common Appearance and Behavior" --> Locale --> Country/Region.
Go to "Date & Time" tab and select the HH:MM:SS Time format.

I have a fresh install of Fedora 24 KDE Workstation.
I can no longer find this setting under Date & Time.
Thanks, Ken Wolcott

FWIW, KDE questions are best addressed on the KDE list.
Anyway, the answer is not likely to please but require compromise. You can see some of the history around it by checking out https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=340982 . The issue comes about from KDE previously using its own locales but dropping that in KDE5.
You could go to "System Settings--->Personalization--->Regional Settings--->Formats" and check the box "Detailed Settings" and then pick "Default (C)". The downside to this is it also affects the Date for some KDE applications. So, instead of July 4, 2016 you'll see 4 July, 2016 or instead of 7/4/16 you'll see 4/7/16.
What I've compromised on is to leave it at the US settings and then pick 24hr format in the "clocks" applications and to make changes in the launcher menu to call T-Bird using "export LC_TIME=C ; thunderbird %u".

Thanks for your support (again).
I selected the Default(C) option which I did not see earlier.
I was trying to remember who told me (you) about LC_TIME but I could not remember what it was other than "something followed by TIME", and my searches for this where fruitless.
I probably will do what you have suggested when I see how the current solution works out.
Thanks, Ken Wolcott
