Welcome to the site. Perhaps app103's DClock2 may work for you?

Them look nice, but cannot be customezed, no date shown and have white border around $:-\$
But thank you anyway.

It does show the date when you hover your mouse over it.

Right click the clock for a menu with customizing options: size, colors, hourly chime, and an option to hide the tray clock.

There are also other things accessible from the menu, such as displaying system uptime , copying time, date, or system uptime to the clipboard, access to additional tools (timer, stopwatch, todo list)

The border matches your Windows theme. Change the color of your theme and the border will change color to match it. Mine is purple.

I never tested it with multi-monitor and have no way of doing so. If it doesn't work, I am sorry for that.

It can be dragged to the second monitor, but it isn't 'allowed' to stay there, probably because the x/y coordinates are normalized to the current screen-size instead of the desktop-size. The date-hint does show on the second monitor in my setup

We, fellow DC-ers, can do that for you

Does it have to be placed on the desktop and not replace Windows' clock?
To replace, try BetaClock: www.betaclock.com/ (yes, the homepage really is this minimalistic!)

Just like app103, I have no way of testing if it works on multiple monitors,
but maybe Aram can tell.

DSClock should work for you: http://www.dualitysoft.com/dsclock/index.html

Tested in my multi-monitor setup.

Hello!

I had them in my "Home collection" alredy but they look mono. Only if add color parts as Chasiki has then they will be same.

Thank you.

I'm not familiar with the above, but have you asked Vladimir Vihodsev for multiple monitor support?

Chasiki was made year 2000 and is freeware and no more support, he have no contact information left that works.

Not sure if a taskbar clock will do for what you're after, but T-Clock is quite configurable.

The Noobiset User · « **Reply #13 on:** November 29, 2011, 09:49 PM »

It need Windows shell to work and I use bbLean (BlackBox clone for Windows) $:-\$
ehhhhh
But thank you anyway

I was looking around very long time to find something as Chasiki but most of clocks are analog, digital clocks very ungly and big, only DSClock look nice and is near Chasiki and have more functions, but to find with colorezed parts is impossible i think.

It has been a long time since I've used bblean (I thought it was already discontinued!), but it was very flexible, you could customize the clock exactly the way you wanted. Why don't you use it instead?

I found a copy of his site using the wayback machine. But it doesn't look like he ever made the source code available. If the author/source code could be found, I could modify it for you ... But I don't have the time to start from scratch.

It is a cool little clock (ran fine on Win7 x64), I saved a copy in my TClock variants (which suspect it may be) collection.

Stoic Joker · « **Reply #16 on:** November 30, 2011, 12:55 AM »

Okay, hang on a second... I've been playing with this thing for a bit, and it's working off a hardcoded limit of 1,000 for the X position. If somebody is good at binary hacking (I'm not) this could be a quick fix.

I have only Analog plugin but i do'nt know how to make changes and addons for digital clock as i wish. I can change size and colors but not shape.

Stoic Joker · « **Reply #18 on:** December 02, 2011, 12:36 AM »

Okay, I give ... I spent two days trying to hack the binary, and it's just not going to cooperate for me. I've got too many others projects to keep this up and reversing really isn't (anywhere near) in the center of my skill set... *Shrug* Anybody else want to take a crack (pun intended) at it?

Check out BBClean-XZ over at www.bb4win.org if you're still interested in BBox for newer versions of Windows.

The Noobiset User · « **Reply #21 on:** December 09, 2011, 10:47 AM »

Thank you!

Now i got many styles for my bbLean

I found also rainmeter.net for desktop customization.

This is what happens to DClock 2 on a Win 7 with expanded text after you expand the size to match the desktop. This screenshot is for App103 because I couldn't put it in a personal message(no way to attach it).
