I am trying to have a chronometer in HH:MM:SS format from XML in Android.

I have the following code but it doesn't work. 

<Chronometer
        android:id="@+id/chronometer2"
        android:layout_width="117dp"
        android:layout_height="100dp"
        android:format="HH:MM:SS"
        tools:layout_editor_absoluteX="91dp"
        tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="316dp" />

How can I do? I want to set the format from XML and not from code. It is possible? I tried to set also the propriety "digits" to 6 but none happen. Can someone help me please!!

    Don't know if it's a new Widget, if it is and you working with AppCompat you must use app:format instead of android:format. Also MM means month and SS is a special encoding for seconds, you should use HH:mm:ss – Marcos Vasconcelos Oct 31 '17 at 15:06
