If UI5 supports the date time based on customized time zone?
Hi,
I wonder if UI5 library supports the date time based on customized time zone, just like: someUI5DateFunction('2015/5/20', custommizedTimeZone), just like the TimeZone.getDisplayName(b:boolean, n:int, Locale:Locale) function in http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSVRGU_9.0.1/com.ibm.designer.domino.api.doc/r_wpdr_runtime_timezone_getdisplayname_r.html, or toString(date:Date, pattern:string, loc:Locale) function in http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSVRGU_9.0.1/com.ibm.designer.domino.api.doc/r_wpdr_runtime_i18n_tostring_r.html?
Best Regards, Elaine
Hi Elaine,
custom timezones are currently not supported but we are not ruling it out. It's just currently not on our plan, yet.

Hi Elaine,
since UI5 version 1.99.0 we support setting a IANA timezone ID via the configuration.
sap.ui.getCore().getConfiguration().setTimezone("America/New_York");
which will then have the affect that all Date conversions using the DateFormat are automatically converted to the datetime in New York.
See: API doc setTimezone
Note it is still experimental yet.
Best regards, Tobias
