Customize date format in drag tooltip
The date format in the drag tooltip is hardcoded to "HH:mm a EEE, MMM d". We would like to be able to change this as it is not common to use the AM/PM marker in many cultures.

I am happy to announce that the date format in the task drag tooltip of the Gantt can now be customized through the kendoGanttTaskDragTooltipTemplate directive, released in version 21.4.0. Please check the following documentation article for more details:
