Editor variable ${timestamp} the same as ${date(yyyy-MM-dd)}

oXygen provides the editor variable ${date(yyyy-MM-dd)} wheras the documentation refers to it as ${timestamp}? Are both variables the same? Or can I modify the date/time format of ${date(yyyy-MM-dd)}?

Just found out myself. The variables differ and one can modify the date/time format.

So this just some information missing from the documentation ;-)

Hi Frank,

Our user manual has this topic about editor variables:

http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/ ... ables.html

which for detailed date pattern information links to this resource:

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/ap ... ormat.html

If there is another place in our documentation where you found the problem, please give us more details about that particular place.

Regards,
Radu

You are right. My bad, I failed to scroll far enough down the help page. :-(
Sorry.
