OK, but if we gave Gixen our timezone [eg GMT+3] would it be a big job? but I suspect the answer is 'yes'! but like many I've no idea when "3 days 15 hours 10 minutes time" might be without a lot of head-scratching.

Personally I'd prefer "13/8/12 15:53"
Just a niggle - Gixen's so useful and such good value.

jd737stephanie,

I'll see what I can do about the copy in Gixen Desktop Manager, but I am not sure it will be possible. I use some components that may or may not have that ability.

No worries - i understand that. How about an option to copy text from the item list in the desktop manager? I have no right click menu here.I would find this very useful. And by the way, I find being able to discuss features I would like to have in my software incredibly satisfying. It is the reason I paid the $6. Thank you.

Firstly, thanks for Gixen. Only just started using it and haven't won anything yet, but I'm heaps confident. Secondly, is there any chance of adding an option to show the remaining time left on an auction as a date and time, rather than hours remaining? I would rather see "ending next wednesday at 3:45" ,than "two days and fifteen hours to go". I hope you know what I mean, I don't think I explained very well. Cheers.
