  <title>Change date and measurement formats</title>

  <p>You can control the formats that are used for dates, times, numbers,
  currency, and measurement to match the local customs of your region.</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
      start typing <gui>System</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Select <guiseq><gui>Settings</gui><gui>System</gui></guiseq> from the
      results. This will open the <gui>System</gui> panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Select <gui>Region &amp; Language</gui> to open the panel.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>In the <gui>Your Account</gui> section, click <gui>Formats</gui>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Under <gui>Common Formats</gui>, select the region and language that most
      closely matches the formats you would like to use.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click <gui style="button">Done</gui> to save.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Your session needs to be restarted for changes to take effect. Either click
      <gui style="button">Restart…</gui>, or manually log back in later.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>After you have selected a region, the area to the right of the list shows
  various examples of how dates and other values are shown. Although not shown
  in the examples, your region also controls the starting day of the week in
  calendars.</p>

  <note style="tip">
    <p>If there are multiple user accounts on your system, there is a separate
    section for the <gui>Login Screen</gui> in the
    <gui>Region &amp; Language</gui> panel.</p>
