How can I change the time to match reality?

When Wireshark starts off, the time is zero. I wanted to change the time so that it made sense in the month day year and hour/minute and seconds.

I selected Edit->Time Shift.... I then clicked on the "Set the time for packet" to packet I wanted to set the time to. I then entered 2019-07-08 (space) 12:15:00. The box turned green which I assume means that it is an acceptable format. I clicked the "apply" button.

Nothing changed.

So how do I get the time to change to the time I want?
