For split 1.2, the subkey would be 102.

So in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Binary Fortress Software\DisplayFusion\Taskbars\102, create the "ClockSize" value (String value) and then set it to the size you like.

Hope that helps! ]]> RE: Show only date not time https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#31 Thu, 02 Apr 2020 13:22:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#31 DisplayFusion

Ah yep, the Advanced Settings were only designed for physical multi-monitor, not split monitors. It is still possible to set those for split monitors, but it has to be done in the registry.

Thankyou for looking into this once more.
I'm glad to hear that I'm not 'so stupid'. A pity for the time I spent on this though.
Would be nice to get a patch on this bug soon. Please keep me informed.
Wish you a successful day.

Great & responsive support - thanks! ]]> RE: Show only date not time https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#25 Wed, 01 Apr 2020 11:24:42 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#25 DisplayFusion

If you have two then dont enter any values for Taskbar #2 etc as it wont be recognised, just use Taskbar #1 for your settings. The settings are only for monitors using the DF taskbar not your main monitor. ]]> RE: Show only date not time https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#18 Tue, 31 Mar 2020 09:26:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#18 DisplayFusion I dont know of a global fix for that but try reducing the number, if its too high it wont work, or didnt on my system. Try -3 on just one of the taskbars and see if it makes a difference.

EDIT
Just tried your values on my system and -5 is too high a number. -3 worked well though on system size, i.e. no clock size entered.

I would like the move the time & date line closer together.
But the 'Clock Row Adjust (Taskbar #xy)' doesn't work.

Is there maybe a 'Clock Row Adjust (all taksbars)'?
Maybe it's the same issue as we had with the clock size, where the 'Clock Size (Taskbar #xy)' didn't work, but 'Clock Size (all taksbars)' did work? ]]> RE: Show only date not time https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#16 Tue, 31 Mar 2020 09:15:24 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#16 DisplayFusion Solved!

Dear Alan
Thank you for your time and effort.
Something is wrong. It looks like that my DP doesn't take the clock size & clock text parameter into account. I can't even make the changes you did (my language settings of the windows 10 system are in German though).
Have a look in the pics and please advise... once again.

Ok First off my appologies, those are the parameters for my system which are for a large font on a single line. The clock text size can be default (no value entered) or any you want, The clock size, which you have set at 300 is the width on the taskbar, usually set when the day/date dosnt fit in the normal allocated space so to explain that, because I have a clock text size of 26 I need the extra width. The Clock Text per taskbar and the clock display dont match proberly because ddd dd MM is english for day date month and the v[w01] is for vecka (week number). My system is in Swedish but seems to recognise the English format, your system may well be a different format for the day/date.
To check this, open your Windows Settings, click on Time and Language then on Date and Time. In that window you should see a blue link named Change date and time formats, click on that and you will see what formats your PC uses. The \n switch, I will try to look up to see if it is different in German although as far as I thought, is an international switch.
Hope that helps. ]]> RE: Show only date not time https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#14 Tue, 31 Mar 2020 05:26:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#14 DisplayFusion Dear Alan

In your settings type in clock text type what you want i.e. hh:mm dd.MM.yy but add \n where you want the line break to be so it would look like this: hh:mm\ndd.MM.yy
If you cannot see both the time/date properly because of the taskbar size then in the advanced settings click on Clock Row Height Adjust and give that a minus number e.g. -3 and it will move the lines nearer together. ]]> RE: Show only date not time https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#12 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 16:46:28 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/show-only-date-not-time/?ID=84cd0946-8d09-43d6-a4cd-8049ff468bc7#12 DisplayFusion
