Of boredom I made an analogue clock. Hope you like it.

nice 😀 I guess i'll do a scalable and customizable version on basis of my knobmaker. 😉

I made some small changes to make the animation of the lancet with an analog-style. Then I modified the trigger system, because with primitive "Timer" will run into some drop out of sync with the real elapsed seconds.

Thanks guys! I'm glad you like it. @ Digital White Byte - Yes, I have observed this.
Cheers!

Nothing much but thought (bored) I'd add the day and date in there...lol
BTW, Great work Pall

Amazing stuff! If this is what you guys do when you are bored, then i wonder what you can achieve when you are really focused? 😮

Very nice analogue effect! 😀

Hi martinvicanek!
Indeed, when I designed this watch, I was pretty bored. And this boredom, I came in mind to make an analogue clock. It was not difficult, to make a comparison between a circle and a clock. But in fact most times I'm very bored. 😉
Cheers!

Just to keep going deeper into the clock delirium, I've made this speaking clock.... for the fun...
pall ·
Good job! You can say how many wav files you used? And what resolution? 🙂
Cheers!
tektoog ·
Hey pall, there is no wav files used for this. It's Microsoft Text-To-Speech synthesizer who's telling the time. You can adjust the voice (Sam is the default voice) in the voice tab control panel. Mary has a sweet voice... Cheers!
pall ·
Ah yes...., many wav files could not fit in 1.5 MB.
Thanks tektoog!

Here is an update. It speaks correct english now... 😉 I mean no Ss when 0 and 1 minute/seconde are pronounced and time is now converted to the ante meridiem/ post meridiem format (AM/PM). I think the voice articulation is better now, especially with Mary (the voice I used to set the parameters) I changed the welcoming message and added a bit of visual... Would it be nice to have the user insert his own welcoming message? Inserted in the startup windows program you can have you computer welcoming you when it boots... I think it's fun... 😉 🙂

I like it. A good example of the "Rotate" componant as well. Always struggled to get it going. This really helps me to understand it.Thanks.

Yes, with "Start-up" can make many types of welcome programs. As you say, a user iserted text, and processed by the "text-to-speech engine. Or choosing from several wav files, that sound better. Such as; "Good evening Mister tektoog". 😀
