    How do I force QDateTime.toString () to display UTC time?
    If I change the time zone on my computer, then the output of the function also changes. It's pretty obvious, so I added setTimeSpec(Qt::UTC) but it still doesn't work!
    I think I am using this incorrectly?
    How can I force toString to output timestamp exclusively in UTC format without being bound to the local machine time zone?

    This code:

    Output:

      As stated in the documentation you need to use QDateTime::toUTC().

      For more information please re-read.

      Kind Regards,
      Artur
