Project: QGIS
Version: 3.12
For various dataset type, for example GRIB and NetCDF, the reference time in QGIS time settings dialog is prepopulated from the raw data and does not need to be set manually. Also we fixed various bugs related to time parsing, so in QGIS 3.12 it should be possible to format and show your time in plots/animations in proper way.
If there is a valid time reference provided with dataset groups, this time reference is used to displaying time (using absolute time). If there is no reference time provided, the time is displayed using relative time, and a time reference can be set by the user to display absolute time. When no time reference is provided, the default one is the current date + time set with 00:00:00. A push-button is added to reload the reference time provided with dataset groups if needed.
It also adds a new feature to let the user set the time unit of the provider with a combo box if this time unit is different than hours.
