Can't set the time in Sun Settings

[Anonymous]

Dear fellow Revit users, 

I can't adjust the time of the day in any of my Revit files. It was working fine then suddenly the time disappeared, as you can see in the screen shot. I've already reinstalled Revit and that didn't fix it. Any idea what could be causing this?

Thanks!

is the time blank for the solstice and equinox presets?

Is it possible to manually enter a time? Or is the field completely disabled?

Yes, blank in every possible date option 😞

Your View have the right Visual Style? 

oops. Didn't see screenshot.

The field is completely disabled, I can't type into it.

I opened the file on another machine and it worked there, so it must be some local setting. I also tried reinstalling Revit, no luck so far...

Do you use Daylight/Summer time?  I'd be curious to see if your system's time settings had something to do with this...

Did you install any Add-ins recently?

Are you saying this phenom is affecting EVERY view in one Project, and that it is not just one corrupted view?

I wasn't using Daylight/Summer time, but when I went into Date&Time settings in Windows I noticed that the format was set to English (Europe). I changed to English(US) and it fixed the problem! Thanks for the hint 🙂

It was affecting every view and every file! Finally I found out that changing Date&Time settings in Windows fixed it.
