Disk Clock Widget Description

Moves multiple disks in what would be the clock face. Ever gotten the minute and hour hands confused? Wondered whether it was AM or PM? Found digital clocks a little too abstract?. The Disk Clock moves multiple disks in what would be the clock face. Each disk has it's own distinct appearance.Find Your Place in the WorldThere is only one hand. You know where you are - time flows past, with the future and the past uniformly to the right and left. Years, moons and hours will rotate smoothly through their appointed cycles, conveying multiple layers of information. Color denotes season, day of week, hours of daylight, or simply identifies the quarters of more abstract measures.Revolutionize Modern TimeEven putting the now in a single place, you may still have to cast your eyes about to find the reference point for a disk. The default configuration features disks with 15-minutes, 1 hour, and 4-hours instead of the usual 1 and 1. Greater locality of the information you need saves your eyes from wandering.Tutorial:The day fills an entire disk, with day and night that move accurately throughout the year. That red mark is solar noon, giving another reference point. (It's around one currently because of Daylight Savings Time.) It appears that it's about quarter past one.The major marks on the day disk mark out four hours, and the next disk down represents four hours. One hour fits nicely in your field of vision. In this case, we are in second quarter of the hour, a little after 1:20pmIf you need more detail, go down a step; the next disk is one hour, and you can see the individual minutes marked out. The blue highlighted section is 15 minutes, with the marker about three ticks into the second section, or around 1:23pm.The next disk is 15 minutes, corresponding to the major divisions in the hour disk. In this case, it is just a few seconds past 1:23. Add the fine detail set if you need more precision. What's New in This Release: · Massive internal refactoring. Only visible change is that default disk coloring changed from quarters to halves.
