Widget: Analog clock

This functions as a clock face, displaying time with hour, minute, and second hands.

Customization and Features

All customization for the analog clock elements use the widget's Edit dialog which access the launcher's standard Edit dialog consisting of: Reset, Color, Dynamic color, Icon pack, Shape, Image and Dynamic image. These options are fully discussed here. The features to be customized with the above options are:

  • Time Zone: Users can set the specific time zone the clock is to display which defaults to the user's device setting. The user can manually select from over 500 locations in the global time zones.
  • Clock Hand Customization: The appearance of each clock hand is individually configurable:
    • Hour hand: Most users will customize this using a color or image. The hour hand from made invisible (hidden) using the hex color code #00000000.
    • Minute hand: See the above hour had discussion above.
    • Second hand: See the above hour had discussion above.
  • Aesthetics
    • Background: The overall background of the widget would be the clock face. Users would find suitable images to import to Resource Images in the launcher to customize.
      • The default background is transparent but can be modified with any of the six options above.
    • Margins: The margins default to 5 pixels on all sides. An increase in the margins on all sides would decrease the space available for the hands and make them occupy less space. Also, manipulation of the margins could be used as an offset to shift the center point (fulcrum). The margin modification does not affect the background display.
  • Animation
    • Enter animation for the analog clock widget. See more discussion on enter animation here.
      • If the clock is on the designated home page and the phone is on the home page, the enter animation is effected after a system doze and “awakened” by the power button or phone unlock.
      • Fixme … hopefully, some creative soul will insert another way that this is used or useful!
