Depending on where you want it. Some fields are just text fields and just can be modified. Other fields can be really date fields and are dependent on the windows settings (Control Panel > Region and Language)

Not sure, but expect that you will have to restart Revit to take effect.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

Hi @Anonymous

 

I see that you are visiting as a new member! Welcome to the Autodesk community!Smiley (fröhlich)

 

  • The date stamp parameter in Revit responds to the date format that you establish in Windows' control settings.
  • To format the date and time format of this stamp, modify the regional and language settings on your computer.
  • Another option is to use the Date/Time Stamp parameter and create a new shared parameter of your own.
  • You could also edit the family in your titleblock and you can change the font, size, visibility, and location of your date stamp

Please select the Accept as Solution button if my post solves your issue or answers your question.

Hi,

I have the same issue and changed the windows setting as detailed which worked. However, you need to bear in mind that this change can affect other systems!

I noticed that this change had stopped the date formatting from working correctly in Excel so had to revert back.

Just thought i'd share...

Doesn't work for me.

Windows show the correct date, and everytime a new sheet is made, it uses America format.

date stamps no good for me.

I have to manually change

Hi @ all !

please have a look at this Revit Idea and vote:

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/take-date-format-into-project-units/idc-p/8303631#M23105

 

>>>Take Date Format into Project Units 

It's a shame. On every sheet we have to change Date Format manually.
I think this is equal to all non-US-users.
So, please put the Date Format into the Project Unit Form.
See Proposal attached.

This is a verry old Idea without any reaction by Autodesk.

As Darren Carver wrote a the beta-forum in 2016 : since Release 4 in 2003 !!<<<

Kind regards, Bernhard

Agreed, in 2022 this issue is still not resolved and should not be shown as resolved. This is 100% a coding issue and not a user issue. this sort of thing should have been resolved a while ago and should not be something the user has to continually re-check and amend manually. If the date stamp reads correctly, so should the sheet issue parameter, based on window settings or otherwise.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.
