Time display in lower right corner...

Post by rbphilip »

I'm giving Zeus a trial and I notice it has a time display in the lower righthand corner.

Which would be fine, except it's got a changing seconds display, which flickers. I've done a modicum of searching help and the forums (which don't like "display time") to no avail.

How do I turn off the seconds, or the entire time display? The flickering numbers draw my attention, and to be honest are unnecessary. Windows has its time/date display 2cm away, and there are two other computer clocks within the shift of an eye. And my watch and phone right beside my keyboard.

It's like the opposite of being out of time! I have too much time.

There have been one or two reports of flicker but I personally have not ever seen this :(

That feature dates back to the days of Windows 3.x when there was no clock on the desktop.

I agree *it might be time* to remove it ;)

Watch this space...

Hey!

I'm running Zeus in a virtual machine, which may influence the flicker issue, depending on how its getting & displaying time.

Hopefully copying the contents of that zipfile into the Zeus directory was the right move. It's ever so lovely without the flickering time display.

Thanks!
