Re: Is it rendered at AM or PM? (Why I'm struggling with the time of day.)
Yes, for a number of reasons I'm using English as my preferred language. One is that I was totally unable to understand the inventive Norwegian translations, where the most unimaginable gibberish were substituting the perfectly understandable English menus. English will always be my preferred computer-language. Unfortunately, the default English on a Mac is the US-English, with a very annoying tendency to auto-correct my proper English spelling.
Under Mac OS X, this can be done by editing the Info.plist file found in Sweet Home 3D.app/Contents...
There's in fact an easier way: Open Language and text preferences and select "Edit list". There you will find British English. Drag it to the top, and voila! SH3D now has a 24hr clock... and I should be allowed to write ageing and criticise and colour without getting red lines... hm... no, I'm not! Bollucks!

Anyway, as said in Wikipedia's article 12-Hour Clock, Ceciliabr was right expecting midnight to be 12:00 AM and noon to be 12:00 PM. I think it should be fixed if possible, that means in case it's SH3D the responsible to show it that way and not the system or Java itself.
Regards.

@Puybaret
Yes. Everything works as it should.

As I explained in an earlier post, it was my own mistake. I had forgotten to adjust the coordinates, so the sun was i China, whilst I was in the Norwegian mountains, enjoying my vacation.
The thread was meant to shed some light on the possibilities for making mistakes like that. You know, confessions at the bar...
