JXCirrus Diary is able to work accross multiple time zones.
All dates recorded in JXCirrus record the time zone as well as the date/time.
The time zone that JXCirrus is working in will be set to the time zone of the computer it is running on. If you enter a date, then it will be recorded in that time zone. Here is an example:
The computer is set to Sydney Australia Time - UTC +10 HOURS.
You enter 25-Sep-2013 3:00PM
.
This is recorded as 25-Sep-2013 5:00AM UTC
, but
will be displayed as 25-Sep-2013 3:00PM
as long as
you are in Sydney.
If you change the timezone of the computer to UTC +8 HOURS, then
the date will be displayed as 25-Sep-2013 3:00PM GMT+10
.
You can set the JXCirrus Timezone to be different to the computer using Preferences.
It is possible to enter dates directly in another timezone.
If you have a phone meeting with someone in the USA (at, say, 8 hours behind GMT) at 3:00PM their time, and you are in Sydney, create an Appointment, but enter the date as "3:00PM GMT-8". The warnings for the meeting will pop up in Sydney time, and it will be shown in the Day View in Sydney time, but will remember the date as the USA time.
