RCube,

took a screenshot and edited it a little by adding 1 pixel of space between the hour and minutes. if you're still open to suggestions, and if it's possible to do, it looks a little better with the 1 pixel space added, IMO :happy:

minor change but spacing is more even it seems

Nice work on the app RCube.

One thing I was wondering though, since this is a derivative from TClock, I can't run a second instance of it, so I'd like to ask if it would be possible that you bring back the start button customization feature?

Thanks! Keep up the great work =)

BxBoy thanx for the NIP! :)

crazy1 is right, the min and hour were too close together.

So 1 pixel gap added in 1.05a. Also single text shadow themes such as "Azure" works now.

BTallack, how does Neowin branding work?

jbo, I don't want to go into TClock's territory too much. And I like to get all the bugs out of the clock right now. But maybe a very simple way to customize the start button can be worked into LClock2 in the near future. :)

BTallack, how does Neowin branding work?

There are several Neowin branded programs right now, such as AutoPatcher or UXTheme Multi-patch. Both of these are utilities that simply have the Neowin prefix and are supported by Neowin's members. There's a specific section of the forum for Neowin branded applications.

To make it official though, I believe you'd have to contact one of the Admins. PM Redmak, Voodoo, or Neobond. They all usually pretty quick to get back to you.

BTW, if you need a mirror for your program, I'd be glad to provide one for you.

Everybody please update to 1.10a. It has some cool new features that should make everybody happy. :D Just play with the LClock2.ini file.

superclo, now you can use 24hour time or double digit hours. And also take off the AM/PM.

jbo, you got that start button. Look in the LClock2.ini file. Also startbtn.bmp. :D

TonicX, now you can change the font/size/etc. But you might have to play around with the position setting once you change the font.

Thanx BTallack! :) And thank you guys for offering to host the little program. Once development slows down a bit I'll let you guys know. ;) And yeah I don't mind getting it Neowin branded. :)

So we are at 1.11a. I have made an installer to go with the program. :D

Now I am looking for a cool icon to go with the program. If you are interested in having your icon as the offical LClock icon, please post some designs here. :p But it must be small in file size.

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.

      Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

      Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.

      And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
