Test a DX clock for me

Work fine Harley!

Thank ya sir ! your help with the Vexa clock helped make it possible!

I'd give you some Karma if I could find that button!

The thumbs up button under the reply... click it.  

Thank you!

This one I like very much.  

ok.. looking at the code..



Whu set the same VAR to multiple items, the only one that matters in this case is the LAST one. Applying it at the end of that function makes sense, but the beginning sets make no sense.

I would redo it:

Sub Object_OnLButtonDown(x, y)
Dim ulHue
ulHue = DesktopX.Object("3Dmetal_Clock_Face").hue
ulHue = ulHue + 10
'if hue is set to Black "1000" then set it back to Unshifted "0"
If ulHue > 1001 Then ulHue = 0

'if hue is past 255, set it to black.
If ulHue > 255 And ulHue < 999 Then ulHue = 1000

'apply the hue change to the object(s)
DesktopX.Object("3Dmetal_Clock_Face").hue = ulHue
DesktopX.Object("3Dmetal_Clock_Hours").hue = ulHue
DesktopX.Object("3Dmetal_Clock_Minutes").hue = ulHue
DesktopX.Object("3Dmetal_Clock_Seconds").hue = ulHue
End Sub

This seems to work, the main key with this is to make sure the master items are RED.
the Hue works best with a RED main image. Other than the above, it looks good.

"Whu set the same VAR "

um.. where's my EDIT button? Im speaking Zubazzish

"Why set the same VAR" - edited

Here is some revised code for the hue button.
It reduces the calls to set the object hue's down to a single function call.
It also saves the hue in storage so that it will be there when it comes back up the next time its run.

Thank you very much !I will keep this in mind for this application,I assume this will work in other instances also.

Thanks again
Harley

sure.. it reads 1 items hue, then increments that, then stores it back out to the local storage. not real bad. It also looks for that local storage on 1st run to see if there is anything in there, if so, it uses that value.

I think i need to add this to the snippets!

Hi Harley .. It looks great ... Run first time ... 

I am not sure if this is correct for you but if I mouse over the colour changer... keep it still and just click away I can get loads of other colours too ... Is it supposed to do that ? ...

Nice clock for sure ... works well  !!

That's a hue shift . .and by design.

I have a new one I need somebody to check if anyone wants toWWW Link

Other than the fact that their is no actual clock . . it works.
Animation plays, close button destroys the object.  Shines are in place.

Works fine can see the clock at bottom,
Don't like the date display 7/9/8
Would use 09/07/08 if could of worked out how to change it.

3D Metal clock: First start, runs smoothly, colouring works. I close the clock and when I restart the clock, I can't change the colour anymore (Vista64bit). I have repeated this several time, but since the first run, I am unable to change the colour.

Turbo clock: Works fine (I do have a digital clock) except that the close button next to the date took some time to actually do something. To explain; I wanted to close the clock but the close button didn't react at all (no mouse-over too). I wrote this in my feedback to you, but after writing I thought I would try once more and suddenly the button had a red mouse-over and worked. I repeated this and I got a lag again but shorter this time.
Suggestion; to include a switch for 'English'-time and 'Military'-time (the latter being commonly used in continental Europe)

Thank you and it is changed

3D Metal that was an old link sorry!
newWWW Link



Thank you

1 I moved the close button to the top layer and all lag is gone!

2 I am not quite sure how to add the switch but I will try

Thanks again
Harley

Zubaz if your still on could you give it 1 more shot for me?Or anyone just toverify it is all working ok!

Thank you A/V

theAVMAN just gave it a test, shows date and time and the turbine is spinning.   

I'm running XP this morning and everything worked great.  I had the same problem aufisch did at first though.  The close button seemed to take a bit to become active.

Thanks guys!

I moved to top layer earlier .Just now removed the child status and I think that got us!
Thanks again

Doh, didn't see that this thread started in May!!!

I tested the turbine-clock again, and the lag is now gone!

Thank you very much!
