Hey I just now saw this thread.  So glad that T-Clock is active again!  Thanks Stoic!   :-*

PS I was actually listening to White Tiger when I saw it.   :Thmbsup:
That's some good hair-metal right there.

A cool feature might be to have a "School days until Summer" function.  I guess this would be a branch of the "DOY" (day of year) function.  You'd have to allow the user to define the "non-school" days though.  And also define the first day of "Summer."  Perhaps a comma-delimited txt file with (appropriately-formatted) dates.  Saturday and Sunday should be excluded from the count automatically.  Excel has a similar function.  Most time-related apps don't though--which surprises me, because there there a lot of teachers and students out there!

Bonus Star Wars geek tip:  Make your own r2d2 audio alerts to use in T-Clock.

I haven't tried Win 10. But on Win 7, you right-click the clock, then choose "T-Clock Properties."

Biffle, Windows 10 insider version? Or release?
the insider version is currently quite troublesome if it comes to T-Clock :P

Thank you, yes, I had tried it, but there does not appear a context menu.

Oops, I have never heard of such versions, do not know what's the differnece, but I have Windows 10 Home, 64bit.

Alright, that's a pity, well, OK, so I then will remove the progarm. Is there a portable alternative?

Many thanks.

T-Clock can be used in a portable way when you create a T-Clock.ini file (either manually or with .reset_portable.cmd)
Or what kind of portable did you mean?

P.S. if the context menu doesn't work (which usually does for me, even on Win10), you can also access the options by running Clock.exe /prop

Without installation, without adding entries to the registry, files to C:.

Thank you, I do not know where to enter it and I also have to close the clock by stopping the task in the Task Manager, cannot find another way, that somehow let the symbols in the system tray disappear and then display again, do not know what that mean.

Many thanks.

@THEtomaso, since v2.4.1, T-Clock shouldn't run the update checker until the user closed the Options on first start.
That is, if the user disables update checking (about page, first page to see actually) it won't run even once. Otherwise it'll run right after the user is done configuring, which should be adequate.

Anyway, I've just published the first bug fix release for the Windows 10 Anniversary update issues, get it here:
https://github.com/W...ger/T-Clock/releases

Create a backup of your T-Clock.ini (if portable mode were used) before updating to v2.4.1!
Or the Unicode change/conversion could break it and you'll loose all your settings.. (shouldn't, but we'll see) Please report back those problems and PM your original config file

Hi WhiteTigX.

Ive been using T-Clock Redux v2.4.0 (beta 3, build 384) since Nov 27, 2015.

I just tried v2.4.1#414-beta portable, and this error popped up

TCLOCK REDUX.pngT-Clock 2010 (download)

I thought maybe the problem was I needed an executable...that possibly the previous 2.4.0.384 install was an executable, not portable (couldn't remember for sure), but since I could not find an executable anywhere, I downloaded a second T-Clock Redux v2.4.0 (beta 3, build 384) portable today for comparison purposes. 

Testing the second (portable) version of 2.4.0.384 brings up the same error as version 2.4.1.  Also, the Clock64.exe from the original 2.4.0 Ive been successfully using is 235 kb.  The Clock64.exe from the second download of v2.4.0 is only 208kb, although the mouseover from both shows 2.4.0.384

thanks

looks like you didn't download the static version^^
And you've downloaded the old version (since Beta2 is currently only available as a "static" version because AppVeyor somehow failed to pickup my release tag...)

Yes.  All good now. Thanks.

T-Clock can be used in a portable way when you create a T-Clock.ini file (either manually or with .reset_portable.cmd)
Or what kind of portable did you mean?
Forgive me, Im a little lost here.  All I did was unzip the files, place them in a folder and run Clock64.exe.  In the previous version I had customizations, but never had an .ini file.  Yet, the new version opens with all my old customizations intact, which is o.k., but I dont know how it happened.  Have they been written to the registry? If so, I'd prefer to have an .ini if possible instead of the registry entries.  Is there a t-clock option I'm missing to create an .ini?  Or, how do I use the .reset_portable.cmd?

you just execute that cmd script :P
But it'll only "activate" the portable mode, it doesn't remove or convert your settings from registry... (yet)

So you'd still have to cleanup the registry yourself, see #16 or #15

Great!
Thanks for changing this behaviour, WhiteTigX. :)

Unfortunately though, with this latest build, the most important feature (IMO) is broken for me..
No matter which text colour I use, it reverts to white instantly when I move the mouse cursor over it!

(Win8.1,x64)

are you sure you're running the latest version? (Beta2, build 419)

I have a couple wish list items. 

1)  I dont know about anyone else, but sometimes I set a timer, and then forget I set it

I guessing you remember T-Clock ex.  it had a great option for showing the countdown in the systray under the clock when the timer was activated.  What I liked about it was that it reminded me I had a timer going, was out of the way, and always visible (you could have a floating countdown window, but there are times it would be either hidden in the background or in the way blocking something)

2)  Adding "seconds" to the alarm timer would be a very helpful addition.

thx

Good work! :)

Atomic Clock Feature
« Reply #795 on: August 09, 2016, 02:20 AM »
Thanks for reviving T-Clock.
I can confirm it is working fine on Windows 10 64-bit Anniversary Update.  :up:

Is there an atomic clock feature where I can right click to update my computer's time via an atomic clock server?

Edit: I found it. A bit hidden, but it's there.  :)

Does it work?  I ask because on Windows 8.0 I have to use a browser protocol to get the time.  It could be the WiFi here blocking it for some reason.  But connecting to atomic time servers just hangs.

Yes, it works.
Try a different time server.

Hi there,

after updating Windows 10 x64 (1607) today, my original t-clock stopped working.
Now I found the Redux version and downloaded version 2.4.1 build 419.
It shows the correct time when using it with default values, but I would like to use Advanced clock format like

dddd, dd. mmmm yyyy - HH:mm

When I enter this value, the clock freezes an shows a time some minutes ago (maybe the time when I started the software)?!
Seems as if no advanced clock format is working...

Any solutions?

cu, REV

I'd suggest that you'll either look at the format that's automatically created when you're not using a custom one, or click the help link to figure out that "m" means "month"... and you're displaying it twice :P
