I just added the Grandfather Clock to my list of Widgets and love it! At first I wasn't sure if I would like it, but after installing it and hearing the tick-tick and the chimes...WOW! It makes my PC space feel so homey and comfy...like being at Gram's house! I changed the clock frame color to the Light Oak and I like the fact that it can be customized like that. Really attractive.
So far it works great and time (haha) will tell.
I like the look and the chimes are nice but if I could cut the ticking off completely without cutting off the chimes, I'd like it. The ticking is just too loud.
If you go to the widget preferences and select the 'Sounds' tab, there is an option called 'Play second ticks:' change that setting to 'Off' and the ticking will go away without changing any of the other sounds.
Question? It will display correct time as a separtate widget, but 'in dock' it does not display the correct time - it is active and displays 3:00 . Is this supposed to display the correct time 'in the dock'?
