I created 4 columns stopTime1, stopTime2, stopTime3 and stopTime4. These are date columns, at the time of creation I forgot to set the “Date Format” to short so now it is showing the extended time format.

How do I expand the array column so I can go in and change the format, currently I see this and when I click the top right arrow, I am not seeing any option to assist me.

I don’t think there are any straightforward ways, do you use this array column as an array at all? I think you can just rename them to stopTime A, B, C, D so Glide won’t read them as an array anymore, and change them individually.

That’s a good idea. I can do that.

Thanks
