Hi ricardo,

Please STOP quoting/including my previous post every time you have a request. If there is something relevant, quote the relevant part not the entire post.

In addition, numerous times you have either posted a question to the forum or sent me a private message, and I have responded. Weeks have passed without so much as an acknowledgment, or in the case of a private message, even bothered to read my response. At which point I have deleted my post, believing it was no longer needed or warranted.

In answer to the error you are receiving, I suspect it has to do with the outdated version of the script you are running. Since your last download there have been dozens of updates and improvements. You would have access to these updates if you had bothered to read/respond to my private messages...

The email address you provided does not work, please send me a private message with an alternate email address so that I can respond with an access key to the latest downloads.

NOTES:
1. If you over-use the script, Google will block your IP Address from their services for an indeterminate amount of time.
2. Because the code uses screen-scrapes to automate the Google translate service, YOU will need to patch the script after any change to their website.

Hi ricardo,

Sorry to hear about your family troubles.

I resent my original email with your access key to the addresses you provided.

I'm not sure how you downloaded the latest updates last week if you didn't receive my email containing your access key?

Anyways, download the latest package using the link I sent you, and let me know if the problem is resolved.

- #FLIP_SPEED = 4 : Increase for faster flip, set #FONT_SIZE - 1 for no flip
- #FLIP_DELAY = 20 : Delay between flip, set 0 for continuous scroll
- #FLIP_DOWN = #True : Change the flip direction
- #FLIP_FADE = #True : Fade in / out flip numbers
- #FLIPIN_COLOR = $0000FF : Change the flip-in digit color

Updated (\Other_Stuff\DigitalClock\DigitalClock.pb):
- added numerous options
- added Command Parameters
- added SysTray icon/menu
- set DPI Aware compiler option

Fairly basic digital clock I wrote a number of years ago, updated with a couple new features.

Static Startup Options
- DRAW_CLOCK = #False : Edit the file includes/clock.pbi to draw custom shapes used to form the clock
- CLOCK_SIZE = #CLOCK_SIZE_MEDIUM : #CLOCK_SIZE_SMALL, #CLOCK_SIZE_MEDIUM, #CLOCK_SIZE_LARGE
- BLINK_SEPERATORS = #True : Show blinking separators
- FOCUS_INDICATORS = #True : Show focus / border indicators in transparent mode

Dynamic Startup Options
- ANCHOR_CLOCK = #True : Anchored clock does not interact with other windows, mouse-clicks, etc.
- FOREGROUND_COLOR = $30FF00 : Set foreground color (default requester color)
- BACKGROUND_COLOR = $00A5FF : Set background color (default requester color)
- TRANSPARENT_CLOCK = #True : Set background transparent
- TIME_FORMAT = #TIME_FORMAT_12 : #TIME_FORMAT_12, #TIME_FORMAT_24
- CLOCK_LOCATION = #CLOCK_TOP_RIGHT : #CLOCK_TOP_LEFT, #CLOCK_TOP_CENTER, #CLOCK_TOP_RIGHT, etc.

NOTES:
The file includes/clock.pbi is an example of Vector drawn shapes similar to the images currently being used.
When ANCHOR_CLOCK = #True the SysTray icon/menu must be used to modify options or close the application.
When ANCHOR_CLOCK = #False the location can also be changed using the Spacebar when the clock has focus.

Command Parameters
DC || DrawClock (1 || True, 0 || False)
CS || ClockSize (SM || Small, ME || Medium, LA || Large)
BS || BlinkSeperators (1 || True, 0 || False)
FI || FocusIndicators (1 || True, 0 || False)
AC || AnchorClock (1 || True, 0 || False)
FC || ForegroundColor ([hexadecimal format])
BC || BackgroundColor ([hexadecimal format])
TC || TransparentClock (1 || True, 0 || False)
TF || TimeFormat (12, 24)
CL || ClockLocation (TL || TopLeft, TC || TopCenter, TR || ToprRght, CL || CenterLeft, CC || CenterCenter, CR || CenterRight, BL || BottomLeft, BC || BottomCenter, BR || BottomRight)
