Summary0008701: Game title partly obscured in heading of announcements screen
DescriptionIn announcements screen, there is the current date showed in the heading. It is similar place to that one where "Dwarf Fortress" is showed during the "standard view" of unpaused world.

The problem here is that instead of hiding "Dwarf Fortress" and writing the date over it, the date starts a bit more to the left than the game title. This results in things like "15th Felsite, 8 f Fortress" [sic]. For some shorter dates is also visible "r" in "Dwarf", making "rf Fortress" written next to the date.
Steps To ReproduceLook in the heading of screen when you unpause your dwarves
Look in the heading of announcements screen
Additional InformationI am talking about "'standard view' of unpaused world" because that heading is replaced by various things in other game screens (like storage screen).

Reminder sent to: Toady One

This was reported as 0006442 back in 0.34.11. It also occurs on the report list and justice screen in 0.40.23 - I'm not sure if it occurs anywhere else or if you've fixed those as well.

I'll take a look at all of them and make sure everything is working correctly for 0.40.24.
