Guest headhntr Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 I have used a program called TClockEx on my XP machines; it changes the look of the clock and you can configure exactly what you see. I don't believe that it is compatable with Windows 7. Does anyone know of a way to customize the look of the clock in the tray? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Hi headhntr welcome to the site and thanks for the question! As far as I know there isn't any software out yet for modifying the clock in Windows 7. Unless you're speaking of just the Clock Gadget. There is a way to modify both the gadget and the system tray clocks if you are code savvy, but it can get very complicated (especially the system tray) and would require an intensive and long process. In the meantime the closest thing I know of is SkinnyClock [Link] It will allow you to customize the format the date and time is displayed and runs in the background. It's similar to the Clock gadget with the ability to create its own hoverable clock. The gadget like hoverable clock has 20+ customizable looks, which range from super groovy to just plain ugly, but they all work. It shouldn't affect performance becausethe memory footprint is pretty small, 4 MB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cindy Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 and as a followup question - does it require an internet connection? Thanks, CIndy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 No internet connection required! Though if you do have an internet connection you can Sync your clock time with that of the online Microsoft Online Clock and other goverment agency online clocks. 100% Accuracy guaranteed that way.
