make FormatToken bindable, to give end user choice for its own DateTime Format

1. What version of Thingworx are you currently running?
9.3.3


2. Describe the problem you are trying to solve. Please include detailed documentation such as screenshots, images or video.

Goal:
Making the end user able to choice there own DateTime format.

 

Solution:

make FormatToken bindable(DateTimePicker Widget)

make Column Format type DateTime of the Grid Widget bindable

make Column Format type DateTime of the List Widget bindable

I cant think of any other at the moment

 

more detailed description of my case is in at the form:

3. What business value would your suggestion represent for your organization?
well, it is possible to convert DateTime format in the grid and list widgets.

but it would make it more programmer friendly, if the property is bindable.

 

And it would be really great to be able to set DateTime format in the DateTimePicker.(this is currently only possible at language level)

so making it bindable would make it possible to only have 1 DateTime format in my website.
