'locale-default'

What the time format should be

Controls the time format that is displayed in the indicator. For almost all users this should be the default for their locale. If you think the setting is wrong for your locale please join or talk to the translation team for your language. If you just want something different you can adjust this to be either 12 or 24 time. Or, you can use a custom format string and set the custom-time-format setting. false

Show the number of seconds in the indicator

Makes the datetime indicator show the number of seconds in the indicator. It's important to note that this will cause additional battery drain as the time will update 60 times as often, so it is not recommended. Also, this setting will be ignored if the time-format value is set to custom. false

Show the day of the week in the indicator

Puts the day of the week on the panel along with the time and/or date depending on settings. This setting will be ignored if the time-format value is set to custom. false

Show the month and date in the indicator

Puts the month and the date in the panel along with the time and/or day of the week depending on settings. This setting will be ignored if the time-format value is set to custom. "%l:%M %p"

The format string passed to strftime

The format of the time and/or date that is visible on the panel when using the indicator. For most users this will be a set of predefined values as determined by the configuration utility, but advanced users can change it to anything strftime can accept. Look at the man page on strftime for more information.
