Clock Sorting


Best Answer Drakus , 16 January 2015 - 10:27 PM

Just for the record, this info can usually (as in this case) be find in the addon's ReadMe file. To get to that open the Windower launcher, go to the addon you're interested in and click on "About", that should bring you right to it.

 

I did that and the problem was I didn't understand that when it said "None," that I literally had to type in the word "None."

      I've been able to make everything in the Clock addon match the Clock plugin except the sort order.  The plugin allowed timezones to be put in whatever order we deemed fit, I'm guessing the addon can too, but I have no idea how to do it...

       

      EDIT: Nevermind, "None" was the answer I was looking for

        The old clock.dll plugin listed timezones horizontally instead of vertically, which made it really easy to slide it on top of the screen.

        Is there any way to do this with the current clock addon?

        I read the readme, and eventhough you can change the order of the timezones, I can't seem to find out how to change from vertical to horizontal.

            I resolved this under Separator.  "\n" creates a new line, I've always had " | " as my separator, so I input "\ |" and thusly I ended up with a single line.

            The problem is that XML will trim spaces at the beginning and end of the string. To avoid that you need to wrap it in CDATA:

            <Separator><![CDATA[ | ]]></Separator>

              Good call, you're right, that's a more practical way to do it.

                Thanks, that totally fixed it!

                  Clock uses profiles, and that's great.

                   

                  However, I've noticed a problem:

                  I made the above change in formatting to all my profiles.

                  Global profile remains in the new formatting I've edited it to. (working as intended)

                   

                  However, character-specific profiles get their formatting reset to the default every time I log in with a character though.

                  Is there a way to stop Clock from resetting the formatting options in the character-specific profiles?

                   

                  I've made a new post concerning this problem here, as this one is most likely not being checked anymore, after have been flagged "answered".
