I've added that to our feature request list :)


I'd like to add my vote for fixing or allowing customization of the clock text alignment within its box and/or allowing custom padding to be added to the clock. With the 'Show Desktop' button disable, currently the clock is at the very end of the task bar which doesn't look great.


I don't have high hopes for this judging by the age of various threads about unresolved problems I've found in here, but I'll throw my vote in the box anyway.

How anyone could see that clock mashed right up against the edge of the monitor, and think "yeah that looks fine", is beyond me. ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#14 Wed, 10 Jan 2024 21:12:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#14 DisplayFusion

Then with the help of a third party app - cvalled DS Clock I placed it over the DF clock and changed the background and clock colour to what I wanted.
Not the best solution but it is a work-around without the huge gap on the left. ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#11 Fri, 21 Jul 2023 15:20:18 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#11 DisplayFusion OK thanks Owen ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#10 Fri, 21 Jul 2023 13:31:53 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#10 DisplayFusion I've added that to our feature request list :) ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#9 Thu, 20 Jul 2023 18:28:02 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#9 DisplayFusion Maybe if we could set our own padding for left and right? ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#8 Thu, 20 Jul 2023 18:24:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#8 DisplayFusion Yes it is right alignedwithin its work space ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#7 Thu, 20 Jul 2023 17:24:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#7 DisplayFusion If you hover your mouse over the clock, it will highlight the work area for the clock. We are aware of a bug that makes the clock right aligned in it's work space, rather then center. I've attached an example of my clock below, it might be the same issue here, and where that gap is coming from ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#6 Wed, 19 Jul 2023 17:47:14 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#6 DisplayFusion It dosnt move in any direction.
In the settings for the taskbar clock it dosnt move for any of the settings other than left justify which obviously moves it over to the left hand side of the taskbar. ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#5 Wed, 19 Jul 2023 17:43:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#5 DisplayFusion If you hover your mouse over your clock, is it right aligned rather then centered? ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#4 Wed, 19 Jul 2023 14:09:12 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#4 DisplayFusion Reducing the value does reduce the gap albeit a small amount but cuts off the date on the right hand side. ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#3 Wed, 19 Jul 2023 13:57:47 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#3 DisplayFusion My machine is in Swedish not French will check on the other buty when I tried earlier with a smaller value it did not display all of the time and date. ]]> RE: Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#2 Wed, 19 Jul 2023 13:53:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3#2 DisplayFusion Hi Alan,

I was able to reproduce that date issue, it seems to be related to the French language, so I've added it to our list to look into.

The gap is likely because you have the width for the clock manually set. If you decrease it from 300 to 250 or 200, does it remove that gap? ]]> Taskbar Clock Issues https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3 Wed, 19 Jul 2023 09:38:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/taskbar-clock-issues/?ID=181c6b37-a919-4f7e-9943-2d91e1de6ae3 DisplayFusion Hi,
I have two issues that I need help with. I have my primary taskbar set to auto-hide and have replaced it with the DF taskbar. The first issue with the clock customised is that although the code is set to MMM for the month to show just the first three letters, it is showing all of the month. And the second issue is the padding on the left hand side of the clock is very wide, is there a way to reduce it?Enclosed are images showing the issues.
Thanks for any help and if it helps, I havnt used DF for a while but dont ever remember these issues, I am running the latest Dev channel build of Win 11. ]]>
