Change scr in position information

I am trying (unsuccesfully) to change wg84 decimal to DMS in my project position information.
what I’ve tried so far:

  • to change the CRS of my project in project properties
  • to change the dispaly of coordinates and angles (general tab)
    the position information stay in wgs84 decimal. Did I miss something? Any idea ?

Could you try with the following expression?

to_dms( x(transform($geometry, layer_property(layer, 'crs'),'EPSG:4326')), 'x', 4, 'aligned')

Thanks for your response. I get this ‘3°18′45,5285″E’ but I am not sure what to do with that. I want to see DMS in the position information in the qfield UI like there: Positioning (GNSS) - QField Ecosystem Documentation on the bottom left corner . I don’t want to calculate a specific coordinate. May be I misunderstood something.
