As subject says the digital clock widget does not respect system settings
and keep showing time in 24 hours format.

Any solution, please. I checked it with Majeia and openSuse, both respect
system settings.

Thanks.

Sorry - I do not use that clock, too limited, too annoying. I much
prefer 'Adjustable Clock', because it's... adjustible Very
adjustable regarding formatting and font selection, size, color, etc.

Package name is: plasma-widget-adjustableclock

I'd recommend trying that.

Seems to be working here..... and I don't even see an option to make it show
24 hour format.....

I'm using long-date for format and Ameria/Detroit for time.

That's "System Settings" => Locale => "Country/Region & Language"
=>"Date & Time" => "Time format", then select the time format. Should
work fine.

Been there, done that.... and selected the HH:MM:SS format without the AM-
PM. But my digital clock still shows 7:58PM right now.

I guess the digital clock widget takes whatever is in effect when it is
installed.

So I uninstalled it (while 24 hr was in effect) and reinstalled.... No change

Still shows a PM time.

This is exactly were I've mad my preferred settings. And it does work in
that panel. I mean I see my changes taking effect on the bottom of the
panel itself.

However Digital Clock respects Date format as set in "Date & Time" but
does not respect Time format and instead keeps showing time in 24 hours
format.

Anybody knows were Digital Clock keeps its settings. It might provide
helpful to delete existing settings and thus to force it to refresh
itself. But I have no idea where to look for them.

OK, this thing allowed me to set time in the desired format. More of that
I was actually able to make the time being displayed GNOME style I used
to.

But again all this only after playing with Adjustable Clock Source tab.
Otherwise right after installed it showed time in 24 hours format as
well, despite of the fact that system is set to display time in 12 PM/AM
hours format.

So as a workaround it's doing the job.

However the mystery is still there. The time format in system settings is
set to 12 hours format but it is not respected by both widgets out of box.

More of that when I hover a cursor over Adjustable Clock the tool-tip is
still shows time in 24 hours format.

Oh boy, I've just noticed that Dolphin does not respect the 12 hours
format either. So it is not only clock widgets. It is system wide
problem. This is really annoying.
