Time format is not exported correctly

Hi guys,

I have encountered an issue with the time format when I export the data from openforis desktop to .csv or .xslx. Whenever the time recorded in openforis is e.g. 14:05 or 09:08, it skipps the zeros and exports it as 14:5, respectively 9:8 - which is something that R cannot deal with very well. for any times without zeros, this does not happen. The attribute format is set as "time" in the survey designer. Does anybody know how to avoid this issue?

version openforis desktop: 4.0.20

Cheers, Michael

Dear Michael,
If you are talking about exporting the data with the option "Include composite attributes merged column" selected, we will fix this problem very soon with the next release of Collect.
Many thanks,
Open Foris Team
