I’ve updated the Realistic Clocks app. Another person has gotten involved and improved the graphics. There aren’t many more new clocks yet; that’s for version 2.0. However, there are many improvements:
- Transparency – The window can now be partially transparent (preset values or custom)
- Pendulum clock and classic analog graphics improvement by Adrian.
- Dragging the clock too fast will not mess up like before.
- Improvements to alarm – You may now specify specific days of the week or a date.
- Alarm is now a WAV file, so you may change it to your own sound (or leave it). Just make sure the new sound you put is roughly the same length.
- Chimes are added – You may choose Westminster Small or Big, or load your own custom WAV file.
- Gong is added – The clock will gong the number of times on the hour. You have two choices for gong.
- Custom Clock is added – You may now make your own clock w/o changing the source code. You just need to edit the Custom.ini. Remember to restart program to see changes!
- Tube Timer included – It’s the nixie tube clock in kitchen timer format. You set number of minutes 1-59.
- You can now stop alarm with right click (no more fixed # of seconds for alarm to ring).
