"windowmanager" is a file in the /etc folder. If you load the file in a text editor, it should have 'jwm' as the lone entry.
Thanks
PupClockset-2.7
Hi Jim,
I've retested PupClockset-1.6.3 in Slacko-5.3.0.1 (three separate installs - live CD, 3fs and 4fs save files).
I can't duplicate the problem you describe. On my system, PupClockset works just fine in Slacko.
1 - Please confirm there is no "windowmanger" file in /root/Choices/ (i.e. /root/Choices/windowmanager should not exist).
2 - Possibly, your current copy of PupClockset is corrupt. You may want to download a fresh copy and reinstall.

Hi Ulrich,Hi radky.
Thank you for this pet. It‘s realy handy.
Just downloaded version 1.6.3 into slacko 5.3.1. and would like to bolden the the fonts and colour them. Is there any way to do that ?
Ulrich
Most panels support strftime specifiers for the display of time and date, but support for the Pango Markup Language determines the panel's ability to change the clock's font attributes - such as the font size, weight (boldness) and style (normal or italics).
Some panels, such as fbpanel and tint2, support the variable display of font attributes, but other window manager or panels (such as JWM in Slacko) have little support for specifically changing the clock font.
In the default Slacko window manager (JWM), there are options in /.jwm/jwmrc-theme for changing attributes of the TrayStyle (font size and color of the foreground/background). This will change the clock font, but other fonts in the tray (panel) will also change.
Thanks for your question.

I prefer to have my panel (fbpanel, in this case) on the left side rather than along the bottom.
None of the available extended formats work well for this; they are just truncated.
On some systems, I am able to to write my own layout, including line-breaks, so the date can be better presented in a narrow vertical column.
For example, I might specify
"~%R;%S~\n%d %b %Y \n %A "
~23:30;17~

The current PupClockset does not appear to cater for fitting to a side-panel.

I agree, a multi-line display of the Fbpanel clock could be very useful for horizontal and vertical panels.
I'll see what I can do in the next release of PupClockset.
BTW, Fbpanel renders your example as expected if the newline code "\n" is changed to "%n".
Thanks
My, you've been busy updating your fine utilities. Running Clockset in Fatdog64-600 b2 using JWM. I can't get the font to set so that it's readable. Of course, magnified it's fair.

The xdialog color selector of FatDog64-600b2 is nonfunctional. So, rather than using the 'rainbow button' for selecting the font color, you can manually add any RGB color to the 'color entry box' (such black or grey20), or use a valid hex value (such as #2D2D2D).
Thanks
EDIT: Now fixed, see below.

Unfortunately, my system with intel video is booting Slacko-5.3.5 to a black screen, so testing is not possible until the next Slacko release is available.

nice work, I've now worked out how to set font color on for FbPanel on Openbox.
Before it was black writing on the default 'dark side of Puppy' desktop - so couldnt see it ;- )
