Time as variable - currently gets locked during a session #15

Closed LarsJandel closed 3 years ago

LarsJandel commented 4 years ago

I am actually not sure if this is a bug or an intended behavior: When I am getting a time e.g. time in Berlin | 11:49 CEST, this will turn time in Berlin into a fixed variable, meaning it won't update to the current time: Writing the same expression, results in the previously set / old time. I guess, this could make sense when using it in an expression, which shouldn't change every minute. Currently, I have to quit and start Parsify again in order to get an updated time. So as said, the fixed variable might have its advantages, but could there be an option to update the time variable without restarting the app? (This behavior might be true to date as well..?)

Thanks [Parsify v1.1.0 - Windows 10]

Yeah, it currently doesn't update this due to memorization. Parsify Desktop uses a third-party service for time zone conversion. This is likely to change soon ;)

The new "Force recalculation" button in v1.8.0 allows to refresh the answers without reloading/restarting the app 😀
