Quick message...
About time zones, Qt and open source: there is yast Qt TimeZoneSelector, with GPL licensed code. Could it be helpful in creating time zone widget for the replacement clock?
By the way... Since the 'replacement clock' is Qt-based... How difficult would it be to port it to Harmattan-MeeGo-Sailfish?
Best wishes.

Display bug:


As You can see under clock and date, some part of default background image from landscape mode is visible. Background should be (and it was - previously) black on whole screen when in portrait mode.

edit
Adding "Background=false" in the config file solved the problem, so it should be set up like this during install (no background at all) or mentioned bug in portrait mode fixed (no background in portrait mode only).

Oops, I cleanup up some paint lines in the code, but as I do not use a background image, I must have removed a bit too much code without having noticed the side effect . Will restore that of course.

I did not test it, but that file would make sense. My first impression is that is some binary file with citycodes in hex format. Not some standard (database) format.
As the current solution works fine, I see no reason to look into that further.
The main reason for pointing these out is they are "potentially" safe to remove if you have QT worldclock installed.

So if it is to become a permanent fixture of Maemo in the future, they could be removed automatically to safe space.

I guess it could be helpful, but I am afraid it will take quite some time to properly integrate this. Not on my todo list for now.

I would say pretty difficult. They are more QML based and the alarm framework could be very different.

Agreed and point taken

Now let's revert that glitch in portrait mode ASAP:
Code:
Changes: 
 clock-ui (0.6-2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * reverted introduced glitch in portrait mode
   * made timediff format in world clock details equal to default clock
edit:
Code:
Changes: 
 clock-ui (0.6-3+thumb0) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * prevent opening of multiple worldclock detail windows by multiple fast presses
Downloadable in the openingpost.

About icons: it's difficult to see when new-alarm, alarms or world-clocks is being pressed. Could you do it as the 'original' app did, by activating the background-image '164IconHighlight.png' for the button? It is stored in themes/default/images; in the default theme, at least.
Best wishes.

I am using an iconset that has a different (smaller) icon for the "icon_pressed" image. That way, the image will get a bit smaller the moment it is pressed. Personally I think it looks better then that blue square. Sixwheeledbeast also had the same request btw.

I will have a look at it again, maybe I will change my mind and will try to change it

Alrighty, and yet another update, a small cosmetic fix and a "popular" user request.

Code:
Changes: 
 clock-ui (0.6-4) unstable; urgency=low .
   * selected cities in the worldclock screen no longer remain highlighted
   * pressing a button in the landscape mainscreen will show a background
The background image from the timebutton looks a little different from the stock one when pressed (more streched and does not cover the date display)

Hi ade,
thanks again.

But now I noticed also some difference to stock Maemo behaviour!

I do not know since when this is like that, but just noticed today:
when pushing a button "new alarm", "alarms", "worldclock" and keeping it pressed and then moving the finger away from that button, it is like you have pushed it (should have canceled). On alarms page and pushing/keeping the "new alarm" it is activated after 1s automatically. Moving away also activates it.
At least this is different to Maemo behaviour and also different to stock clock behaviour.
But I can live with it , it is just different.
Is that on purpose?

I guess it's to do with the new colours behind the buttons on selection. This is new as of 0.6-4
I like the colours TBH, but as mentioned the buttons are not stock behaviour.

Also it's nice to see a .deb much easier to install updates

One quick thing.
On selecting adjust time and date in portrait it switches over to landscape while the dialog is open.

It seems selecting Settings > Time & Date shows the desired portrait dialog so not sure why clock-ui doesn't.
