RCube Posted September 14, 2004 Author Share Posted September 14, 2004 Ok as some of you know I am back at school right now. Trying to finish up my degree. So development won't be as active as before. It will mostly be bug fixes. As for new features, I have plans. But I can't commit to any dates as of right now: 1. New LClock control panel interface. (multilingual) 2. Better reminder notifier with snooze feature. (Stacker's mockup) Here comes the maybes: - more flexable way to skin calendar. - png support. - "skin" support for the clock itself. (this is like what akidd suggested...but you can make it look anyway you want. And Longhorn Clock will be the default skin) Thank you all for supporting LClock, I'll try my best to make development time for LClock. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/157465-longhorn-systray-clock/page/30/#findComment-584554382 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackmaster Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Has it been suggested for an option to add seconds to the clock? Also to make it look like the regular time/date format...all aligned horizontally like so....(MON - SEPT 13, 2004 - 12:00:36 AM)? I know it is supposed to look like the Longhorn clock, but those options would be nice. Keep up the good work...it's an excellent clock!

karma_police Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 No, just keep it like longhorn clock. If you want (MON - SEPT 13, 2004 - 12:00:36 AM use TClock or anything else.

Stacker Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Ok, got it working. Thanks, RCube!ciaran Hey ciaran, nice Calendar layout! I like it already :) Is it an actual shot? If yes, could you share your .ini files and button and other bitmaps as well (in a zip pack)?

Harsh86 Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Is that photoshopped Kritenks? No, fireworxed :p Maybe it should just be a SA instead of a SAT so it doesnt look so squashed :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/157465-longhorn-systray-clock/page/30/#findComment-584560195 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too am at school again, knee deep in graduate studies, so I can empathize with you ;) I would like to put a request to raise the priority for .png support. I think that this would greatly skinning capabilities and would allow us to create some very slick background.

Good luck with your school too. :) What do you mean by this? I have enabled 32bit bmp, it is the same as PNG(has an alpha channel). The only thing I see with PNG is it will allow us to use much smaller files. Here is the demo again if some of you missed it, all done with alpha channel: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/157465-longhorn-systray-clock/page/30/#findComment-584560821 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaran00 Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Had a question about the LClock reminders. So LClock doesn't really remind you if your computer was off and an event goes off. Any chance of changing this so that it reminds you if the reminder hasn't previously gone off? And good luck with school, RCube. I am in my final semester of graduating here... ciaran Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/157465-longhorn-systray-clock/page/30/#findComment-584561547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCube Posted September 15, 2004 Author Share Posted September 15, 2004 orliville, you have to create an alpha channel in photoshop. example: This is what the alpha channel looks like in photoshop: You can also look at the new button bmp files. They are 32bit bmp. btw: if you use 32bit bmp, you don't need to set the transparency color in lclock. ciaran00, I like your layout too. Can you send it to me too or just post it here? thanx! :) Yes that is one of the limitations of the reminder. I have it on my todo list. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/157465-longhorn-systray-clock/page/30/#findComment-584561634 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCube Posted September 16, 2004 Author Share Posted September 16, 2004 Me messing around with ciaran00's design: skin1.zip It isn't perfect...since the current lclock wasn't made to be skinned with drop shadows.

RCube Posted September 16, 2004 Author Share Posted September 16, 2004 Yes. That is what I wanted mine to look like. How did you do the round corners? Photoshop CS. :D I just used the round rectangle tool(U key). And you can double click on they layer in your layers window to get extra layer styles, like drop shadow and such.

Azatoth Posted September 16, 2004 Share Posted September 16, 2004 Nice clock, many thanks for it. Also thanks for all guys posting nice skins keeping me busy trying all of them... Somebody already requested an option for showing also week numbers in the calender ? And maybe showing weekends or some customizable days (saturdays, sundays in my case) in different colors ? Also, is it just me who thinks there's too much free space on the left an right side of the clock, making the tray unnecessarily big ? I couldn't find a setting in metrics that makes the overall width of the clock smaller.
