enter image description here

In the top bar of the window day and time are shown, but not date. Is it possible to show the date also by changing the setting?

system-settings 18.04

  1. I've found 2 ways to do this.

    1. from the command line

      dconf write /org/gnome/desktop/interface/clock-show-date 'true'

    or

    1. Install gnome-tweaks and in it there is a setting to show the day/date along with the time in the top bar. To install, do:

      sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool

    After the install, when you run tweaks, you will see on the far left column "Top Bar". Click on that and you'll see the options on the rigth. Turn the one "ON" under clock where it says "Date".
