In preferences you set it so it uses local time in your area for MyLog. Thats the only item you can change regarding time.

There is a tick box in Preferences, which should use the local time from the computer on which you are running, and it's local time.
It seems as though RB is NOT actioning this, or the display on the bottom left of the screen along with the location of the cursor!!!

It changes the time to "Local Time" in MyLog only.

Bit of a generalisation there.

The world of flight operations, ATC, etc, certainly works in UTC.

But anything relating to passengers, schedules, timetables, flight information, etc is more likely to be shown in local time.

Just a further onservation on changing to current time in my log only. when I apply this it will not show last hour or last ten minutes in my log entries. Change it back to UTC and they appear straight away. Am I doing something wrong.

It appears that the filter works in UTC, for example aircraft noted on 1 April will still be shown in the 'today' my log filter at 00:30am BST on 2 April.  The change to them being in the 'yesterday' filter happens at exactly 1am BST 2 April.

I have no problem with the UTC times, but when the local time shown under the hardware and network indicator lights is still one hour behind, it gets a bit baffling !
Thank god for the log time's, except the last hour setting which refuses to work,
and thats the one I use the most.
Surely a small fix could give us back the local times ?

And then our aviation Professionals using it will complain :)

Request has been noted though for Local and UTC choice.
