Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

i would not change (remove) background for landscape... it wouldn't represent a true replacement that way
(just my opinion) ;)

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Make it configurable. Everybody happy :D

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Thx ade, looking very nice with the seconds in portrait mode.
About the background...

Seems a nice option if it is possible maybe both landscape and portrait :)

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

i didnt get the clock background in landscape... :).. is it removed..?

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Not by me. It should load /etc/hildon/theme/backgrounds/clock.png

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

I think it's the background from the theme you've installed
i have Carbon theme but changed the clock.png into a copy from background file i use on the desktop.
i copied it to /usr/share/themes/carbon/backgrounds

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Except for the one to create it ;)

I do not like to introduce personal preference settings, meaning more complexity and possibly some issues.
If it should resemble the original clock as much as possible, I'll leave it this way. Since the original clock does not have a portrait mode, we have more freedom for that screen :)

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Yes, /etc/hildon/theme/backgrounds/clock.png is used, but that links to your theme image. I also have carbon as theme, so eventually
/opt/maemo/usr/share/themes/carbon/backgrounds/clock.png is used in my case.

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Mind sharing the clock background image ?

Re: N900 clock replacement [continued]
 

Personally I was never very happy with the timezone map. For a start, it doesn't scroll properly. I think a list of timezones is fine.

Well, I'm not so sure introducing an option for this is a good idea in general. See Joel on Software's view of options. It would be better to see if it was possible to fix things so that the clock can update once per second with a background image, but without it taking 10% CPU, or just leave the seconds off for the time being.
