Is there a way to get the clock (top bar) to show seconds?

I looked in the Time & Date settings tab, but there is still nothing for seconds there.

Without even installing something like gnome-tweaks, you can simply enter this into a command prompt (Ctrl+Alt+T)

$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface clock-show-seconds true

  • Where is this supposed to do something and when? Does it require a reboot? Nothing changed for me. No seconds...

  • The seconds appear at the top of the main screen in the center (the line that contains the network, battery and speaker icons) and on the login screen. Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
