Once this is set for Windows Vista or 7, the clocks will remain available until the user disables them or the time zones are changed. Note: The large clock is the system clock for the “Local Time.” To see the time displayed as analog clocks, left click the clock to show the calendar and new clocks. Put the mouse over the time in the system tray to see the list of digital clocks. The additional clocks have now been added to the system tray. When the changes have been completed, select the “Apply” button then select “Ok” to exit the clock settings window. For this example, the display names Pacific Time and Eastern Time have been used. To make the clock(s) visible, check the boxes with “Show this clock,” choose the time zone, and add a label for the display name. Once the date and time are accurate, clicking the “Additional Clocks” tab will take the user to the second and third clocks. This can be adjusted with the “Change date and time” button with a little shield icon. This will open the Date and Time window, which will show the specific system’s current time and date. A contextual menu will appear with several options, click “Adjust Date/Time.” To take advantage of these additional clocks, the user must right click the clock area. Image: Clock in Taskbar of Windows Vista Windows Vista and Windows 7īoth Windows Vista and Windows 7 have addressed this issue and can be configured to have 2 additional clocks on the task bar. Some options that are available are built into the Windows operating system (Windows Vista, 7), while others can be implemented (Windows XP, Server 2K3) or independently added (3rd party software). There are some simple ways to get multiple time zone clocks on a Windows computer. Although this clock is very simple to use, it is only set to a specific time zone and extra steps must be taken to switch over to a new time zone, even temporarily. If this is what you want, please let me know which skin would you like to use, to tell you how to modify it.Time display is a feature that is already incorporated into the Windows operating system Task Bar. If you want to get the correct time for your location, you probably will have to edit one of the skins, to get it showing the time of your city. Same applies for the Clean World Clock skin, which shows four cities: Chicago, Paris, Mumbai and Singapore. The skins of the world Cities package show one single city / location per skin, but the name of that city is shown in the skin. For instance the Skins\Yard_World_Clock\Clock_0\Clock.ini skin shows the time of Reykjavik, London, Lisbon and Casablanca, while the Skins\Yard_World_Clock\Clock_7\Clock.ini skin shows the time of Vancouver, Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles. But at least one or more cities are shown on each skin. That1s why you can't see the correct time on neither of them. But if your location is Australia, none of these skins is set for your time zone. Not sure what you mean by "skins give incorrect times", because none of those skins is showing the real time of your location, unless you're into on of the locations shown by one of the skins. I just tested another world clock, and its also incorrect:Īll these skins are showing time for different locations around the world.
