Does anyone know if it is possible to use a date-time mask in SF?

We have set the default date-time representation in our application using the extended property CustomDateTimeMask.

For 1 specific screen we only want to display the month and day + time, so e.g. 22-12 13:24 instead of 22-12-2022 13:24.
Is this possible with the help of a mask or something like that, or do we have to convert to a text field (ouch)

For the entire application you can use: CustomDateTimeMask
If you want to deviate from this then you can create an expression field to show the date in a different format. It’s currently not possible to set a custom mask on a column level.

Will realizing this idea Input mask on fields | Thinkwise Community (thinkwisesoftware.com)  create a possibility to use it as a “virtualization mask”?

The exact details of the implementation have not been discussed yet, but the input and visualization should be the same yes. So if the input is like: "(+31) 6 1234 5678”, then the visualization in the grid will be the same.
