Panzer Clock and Stopwatch Yahoo Widget

Published:

Description

This widget just had an update - a code update just bringing it up to scratch.

An interesting Panzer Clock widget - I created this originally for the World of Tanks and War Thunder communities.

The Panzer widget is a pretty Yahoo widget for your desktop. It is a simple multi-timezone stopwatch and clock. Functional and gorgeous at the same time. I based this widget upon my original using the Xwidget engine.

*UPDATE* This is the Yahoo version. Why are there two versions? Well, the Xwidget version is fine and it works well but Xwidgets can be a bit flaky especially if you are running a few of them. The Yahoo/Konfabulator versions run more smoothly and interfere less with your system. The Xwidget version is here:

The graphics are my own, I took original inspiration from a clock face by Italo Fortana. It is all my code with some solid help from Harry Whitfield.

I took the screenshot photo. It looks like 1944 but it was 2004!

STATUS:  Completed I think. Any bugs please report.

THINGS TO DO: Nothing more than a bug or two, if you find any.


Instructions:

1. Install yahoo widget SDK runtime engine - get it here: g6auc.me.uk/ywidgets_sdk_setup…
2. Download the gauge here from Deviantart
3. Unzip it
4. Double-click on the resulting .widget file and it will install and run



Here is just one more of over 500 steampunk icons and widgets that I have created that will leave your Windows or Mac desktop looking absolutely spiffing. There is a whole set of the little thingies and I must say they do look very steampunk indeed! They really are a suitable replacement for the boring old default icons that come with Rocketdock/ObjectDock &c.

It is a fully working widget. Please feel free to download it.

Running the widget using a javascript engine frees javascript from running only within the captivity of a browser, you will now be able to run these widgets on your Windows desktop as long as you have the correct widget engine installed.

The Yahoo widget engine is here g6auc.me.uk/ywidgets_sdk_setup…. These widgets work with Windows XP SP2-SP3, it has been tested on XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 and 10/11+.
