Retro clock today plugin showing very nice analog clock in your today screen.
Main Features:
How To Install:
Download the CAB file, run it, and install into internal (main) memory.
Then go to /Settings/Today/Items to activate the retro clock plugin.
The CAB file already comes with 3 skins you may like or not. One of the skins is for VGA displays and looks really great !
Put additional clock files (skins) created by others into the install dir, then you can choose them in the plugin options.
Known bugs:
- does not work correctly with non-square clock sizes
- clock will not update while the screen is locked
Update 04-03-2008 v1.07.02:
- Added "Alarm hand" to Retro and REdit, that shows the hour position of one of the system alarms.
- Added 24-Hour hand.
- Added the capability to short-cut to the system Clock & Alarm properties.
- Added the capability to embed Author & Name info into the clocks.
- Fixed the bug that prevented Retro from animating properly while embedded in Wisbar Advance Desktop.
- 15-20% speed improvement.
(the new setting screen is shown in the second attachment)



the other today plugin on the screenshots is QuickLauncher

I have a bog standard Mio P550 with WM5 and I can't get this working. It NEVER appears in the today items for selecting. Is this only designed for HTC (whatever that is?)

I was looking for an analog clock with a second hand for my Palm Treo Pro and this fills the bill, but I agree with others that I would like to resize the Austere VGA so that it's smaller. Also, I thought there was an alarm hand, but it doesn't show up on my clock even though I checked the box for it in the options section.
