Graphics hardware in use

AMD RX Radeon 7600 XT

Frequency

Always

Bug description

When I add %U or %W to the "date format for tooltip" setting in the Panel Calendar widget configuration, it fails to display anything. If I add either to the the normal date format, it will display "\~CLOCK FORMAT ERROR\~". According to the website linked below, these should display the week of the year.

Steps to reproduce

Add %U or %W anywhere in the named settings (Right click->Configure on the calendar widget in the panel)

Expected behavior

It should presumably display the week of the year (starting with either Sunday or Monday) in the given strings

Unfortunately the implementation we're using to parse date/time formats does not currently support those specifiers.

https://docs.gtk.org/glib/method.DateTime.format.html

It does show that %V may be useful (I'm not sure what day of the week it would measure from, but it may determine that automatically based on other region settings).

I think you should change what website the info button in that menu points to then, because it describes those operators as possible.
