@jeclrsg having some trouble with

const currentTime = uiState.isUTC ? Utility.convertToUTCTime(WsDfu.DFUInfo.Modified) : Utility.convertToLocalTime(WsDfu.DFUInfo.Modified);

Can you advise... then i can apply to the other pages this is needed on.

@kunalaswani this looks like it has stalled. Is it because you didn't ask for a re-review? (I have now done that.)

[jeclrsg]

@kunalaswani You'll need to rebase to the latest 9.2.x to take care of the conflicts GitHub is noting below. Hopefully there won't be too many conflicts that make it difficult.

Also, something like this could address several of my previous comments about the timestamps not actually changing in the grid and the modified column's label not reflecting whether or not UTC was being used https://github.com/jeclrsg/HPCC-Platform/commit/a79880f0ac6bf08058dfb520354428402ffae607?diff=unified&w=1 Or you might could use it as a reference at least.

I should've mentioned, I did already rebase that branch of mine to latest 9.2. So the line numbers probably don't exactly match up to your branch now.

@kunalaswani GH Actions noted some lint issues, after rebasing. Also, there were still some pending comments from my last review. The main issue I was seeing while testing just now was that the state of the UTC isn't properly tracked, so the grid rows aren't updating. Might've been some artifact of rebasing; merge collisions or whatnot.

But that branch I'd linked to in a previous comment showed one way you could fix it, by moving the UTC status into it's own state variable. And the "currentTime" callback also made the way the datetimes were printed be consistent regardless of the timezone being used in the grid.
