time and date

Post by nawmtaronyu »

I want to create a skin for this type of thing so far ive only done simple launchers and images. so I want 2 different skins one that displays the date as MM/DD/YY eg 06/26/10 and auto updates.

The second is the current time as Hour:Min:Sec:Milisec eg 02:12:36:49

size does not mater I know how to resize If i had to guess Id say about 14 in size

You won't be able to do milleseconds in any easy way, so I suggest you leave that.

To make any sort of time measure I would like to point you here: http://rainmeter.net/cms/Measures-Time
There is even a working skin on that page! :O
Just take what you need and change as you like.
I don't think, therefore I'm not.

Don't have to use image work or anything though.
You could have just a counter with a remainder (%) of 99, link a meter to that and update the skin every millisecond.
would be a massive load for a clock though. And not even sure Rainmeter would put up with it.
