Right-Click Menu

World Clock comes with a context-sensitive right-click menu that gives you access to many commands. To view this menu click the right mouse button when the cursor is positioned over a clock.



Here are the options on this menu:

• Options - opens various pages in World Clock Preferences as explained below.
  • Clock or timer settings - allows to change the location (time zone) and the label for selected clock. Also allows to configure other clock settings such as an action on double-click and whether to display the clock or timer in taskbar or on desktop.
  • Appearance - brings up a page allowing you to change the appearance (skin) for your clock. All taskbar clocks use one skin. Desktop clock skins are configured individually for each clock. This option is context-sensitive. It will show a different page depending on which clock you clicked.
  • Time and date display options - allows to select various time and date display formats for selected clock. If your clock is mechanical you can define whether to show the seconds hand and AM/PM indicator on it or not.
  • Alarms - brings up a page to configure alarms and reminders. They are configured individually for each clock. If alarms already exist for a given clock, this option has a sub-menu with all alarms listed there, where you can edit each alarm.
  • Highlights - allows to change clock color. By default clocks have light green color during office hours (Monday through Friday 9 am - 6 pm) and light blue at other times but you can change this.
  • Time synchronization - provides options to configure time synchronization for your computer.
