You know the problem with that is that the code would be buggy, and every once in a while, in a completely random fashion, it would just ignore your selection.
Or it'd reset it again to the selection you don't want during the next update. Then eventually you'd just give up.
Sounds familiar?

I think it really is that the bar has dropped and so you have even people at the vaunted msft working on VS who can't actually make a more productive contribution than that. ^ > is what someone can do, so ^ > is what we get.

Because they are more interested in form than function, and to "be more inclusive."

Maybe they do it to reduce confusion. A squared + is a plus, but a squared - is also a plus.

Perhaps MS should make these icons configurable. Config files are as old as eternity, isn't it?
Or, has MS already made these icons configurable ?

Some f$€k3r has a useless job and needs to justify their paycheck.
Do they know we developers work mostly on muscle memory and instant pattern recognition? Mess that up and it's like cutting off our dominant hand. That's why we go to war with each other over code formatting after all.

If you wish to format a date in Power Apps, there is a nice set of format letters to provide custom output. So using the Text function I can write
Text(myDate, "mmm dd yy")
Or for time I can write
Text(myTime, "hhmm")
Or I can combine them into
Text(myDateTime, "hhmm mmm dd yy")
Why would anyone think to use the same lower case letters for two very distinct fields?
There is actually a work-around, make sure dd comes first in the date. Good luck 'mercans.

Because "mm" means minutes, and "mmm" means the three-letter short month name. If you want the two-digit month number, you use "MM".

I wouldn't necessarily assume that Power Apps use the same conventions .NET does.
I've used Power BI just a tiny bit, and I wouldn't assume anything based on any prior knowledge or...dare I say, common sense.

No, you use lower case "m" for both.

I thought 'mmm' meant Beer. At least it does when Homer does it.

I would make sure dd comes last. yyyy-mm-dd is my default format.

I tried to make a struct with two fields named mm and mmm respectively. The compiler accepted it without any warning. Confusing, isn't it?
