Hi @epeshk ,

Thanks for your feedback.
There's already a timestamp converter in DevToys. Does it not do what you are expecting?

Hi @veler ,

Current timestamp converter is UNIX timestamp like "1655263430", but what @epeshk expected is .NET timestamp like "637908602300000000" which is also what I expected, please consider supporting it.

Thanks,

Oh I see! Thanks for explaining this 😁

Difficult to place UI for settings.


The UI is different from other tools, but I think this UI is easy to understand.

Hello, when can I use this new function? I still haven't found any options to switch in the latest version. I think this function is more important to me

The input part of Timestamp uses WinUI(muxc:NumberBox).
NumberBox uses Double.
It is unlikely to be changed from Double because it needs to work the same way in various environments.

Converting the NumberBox to ms as it is will result in incorrect calculation results.
For this reason, other methods must be provided.

For example, this is the way to do it.
Prepare a dedicated input field (window will be longer)
Create a dedicated component that "looks exactly the same" as the NumberBox.

I'd be interested in working on this. Would you like the input to be in UTC ticks, or calculated relative to the selected time zone?

Hi,
@btiteux is currently working on it for DevToys 2.0

Hello, I'm currently migrating the timestamp converter.
I plan to support milliseconds and will see about adding the ticks support.
