Right now the skin seems excessively large, which once it has a solid background, will cause some issue with where it can be placed on the screen, unless you turn off "Keep on screen" in settings. Then I would adjust some of the W and H values on the meters so the skin isn't any larger than it really needs to be. A global time clock It works on a analogue round clocks surface with a ring-shaped hand labelled with name of major cities in each timezone. I personally would initially and temporarily set SolidColor=255,0,0,100 so I can see the background. So depending on your graphics hardware, and your graphics driver, you can possibly get "artifacts" left behind. Nothing in the skin, not the window background, and not the meters themselves, have anything that creates a solid rectangular area that is redrawn as the values change. That will force windows to entirely redraw the entire window on each update, rather than giving it the option of only redrawing the content of the window, which will vary over time. It has a music player as well that supports web player. It gives you some adaptive quotes and wallpapers for your screen. It also displays a refreshing message according to the time of the day. In some places (high latitudes, especially now) dawn and dusk last for many hours.This skin should really have an invisible but "solid" background on it. This elegant and simple rainmeter desktop skin allows you to have date and time on your desktop all the time. These values are available on some sites and can also be calculated. If you really want the clock to be awesome, you should start the fade process at dawn (before sunrise) and at dusk (before sunset). On a related topic, I see the discussion of fading in the background based on some sort timer, so it gradually changes from dark to light and vice versa. See JSMorley's skin for the include templates you need. You can also get the precise sunrise/sunset times for that exact spot, so that might be a simpler way to get your clock to switch backgrounds. Well, if you do have any, with whom you want to talk to, then in order to never lose track of time as per their location, you can use the Clean World Clock rainmeter skin for your desktop. If you call the website with the lat/long, it will return a bunch of location data, including the time zone offset from GMT for that location. I don't mean to intrude on this thread, but I wanted to let you guys know there *IS* a simple way to get time zone data from lat/longs. No, I think the easiest way will be to manually add the time zone, as a variable. Maybe just found in a table or something. Even if there is a direct connection between the geographical coordinates and time zones (each geographical coordonate has its own time zone), the connection is, well, probably it's quite complicated and can't be calculated. Well, this is exactly what I said as well. lua script can't know the correct time zone of certain geographical coordinates. For the case of the set geographical coordinates, this is accidentally correct, but if you set another coordinates (out of the region which has the local time 0), the values returned by the measures are not correct.Īs said, neither of Rainmeter, the skin or the. Also, it has a standalone skin having launcher icons on it. It shows you time and date in such an attractive and beautiful way and font. Please take a look to my previous reply above. This Rainmeter skin is simply beautiful and neat. lua script can't know what is the correct time zone of the set geographical coordinates), but the time of the TimeZone=0, which now in my opinion seems to be the default value of the TimeZone option, instead of TimeZone=local. So there is something in the code or Lua script that is making it work.Īs the time goes by, I more and more tend to think that no, it doesn't use the time based on the geographical coordinates (which doesn't make too much sense, because neither Rainmeter, nor the skin and not even the. When used as I did, TimeZ=Locale the skin will show the time based on the Latitude/Longitude values in the section. Eclectic-tech wrote: ↑ June 26th, 2020, 2:29 pm
