Hey All,  
I'm struggling to make the clock node show a 12 hr clock AM/PM. Is this possible? Here is my setup

```auto
[
    {
        "id": "55ddb23e7d7a29c7",
        "type": "inject",
        "z": "3d0b35139ce9cb25",
        "name": "",
        "props": [
            {
                "p": "payload"
            }
        ],
        "repeat": "1",
        "crontab": "",
        "once": false,
        "onceDelay": "1",
        "topic": "",
        "payload": "",
        "payloadType": "date",
        "x": 190,
        "y": 560,
        "wires": [
            [
                "5c43742071398733"
            ]
        ]
    },
    {
        "id": "5c43742071398733",
        "type": "ui_digital_clock",
        "z": "3d0b35139ce9cb25",
        "name": "Clock",
        "group": "c41d575533cb35d7",
        "order": 1,
        "width": 0,
        "height": 0,
        "x": 410,
        "y": 560,
        "wires": []
    },
    {
        "id": "c41d575533cb35d7",
        "type": "ui_group",
        "name": "Apartment",
        "tab": "c548a45fe690539c",
        "order": 2,
        "disp": true,
        "width": "6",
        "collapse": false,
        "className": ""
    },
    {
        "id": "c548a45fe690539c",
        "type": "ui_tab",
        "name": "Home",
        "icon": "dashboard",
        "order": 1,
        "disabled": false,
        "hidden": true
    }
]

```

Thanks  
Rich

This is something the author of the node will have to do. It just so happens I added an RFE to the node back in December. You could add to the [issue on GitHub](https://github.com/patrickknabe/node-red-contrib-ui-digital-clock/issues/1) and maybe the author will make the change, but there is no guarantee.

You could also look at the node's code and figure out a way to do it. Then submit that as a PR which the author might then roll into the node.
