Time?

[Chrome]

How do i add a clock, digital or analog, analog better to my app?

It is not a directx app.

thankyou

Add a timer to your form with interval set to 1000 and a label.
then use this code for the timer:

Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
Label1.Caption = Time
End Sub

[Michael_Kamen]

Ow, I misread your post. You prefer analog above digital
Well, then you must draw a line and use a timer to change one of its coordinates all the time to make it turn in a circle.

Ok i have done what you said and the label just days True.

I am doing the digital one.
thanks.

The label says true??? Could you post your code?
Oh, and as I stated above, the code I posted, give you an digital clock.

[Q_Me]

I know how to do the analog one if you want.

[Chrome]

Ok here.

Private Sub Time_Timer()

lblTime.Caption = Time

End Sub

What you mean?

[Chrome]

i dunno i jus wrote wat mike said 2 put.

Private Sub Time_Timer() <--------- is my timer

lblTime.Caption = Time <--------- is where i want time to display

End Sub

[Q_Me]

I thought you wanted Analog. I can give you the code for it.

Analog:
._._.
. \_.
._._.

Digital:

_ _
|_|*| | |
|_|*|_| |


Which one did you want in the first place?

[Q_Me]

Oh nevermind I misread.

[Chrome]

ok, no i wanted analog, but thought digi was easier, but if u can help me wiv analog then it much much MUCH appreciated.

thanks.

Put a picture box on your form, and a timer with interval of 1000
Leave default names

Public Sub ShowAnalogTime(ByVal MyTime As Date, Pic As PictureBox)
    Dim H As Single, M As Single, S As Single
    Const HPI As Double = 1.5707963267949  ' (4 * Atn(1)) / 2
    Const PI2 As Double = 6.28318530717959 ' (4 * Atn(1)) * 2
    
    H = (Hour(MyTime) Mod 12) / 12#
    M = Minute(MyTime) / 60#
    S = Second(MyTime) / 60#
    
    Pic.Scale (-1.1, -1.1)-(1.1, 1.1)
    Pic.DrawWidth = 2
    Pic.Cls
    
    Pic.Circle (0, 0), 1, RGB(128, 128, 128)
    
    Pic.Line (0, 0)-(0.5 * Cos(PI2 * H - HPI), 0.5 * Sin(PI2 * H - HPI)), RGB(0, 0, 128)
    Pic.Line (0, 0)-(0.8 * Cos(PI2 * M - HPI), 0.8 * Sin(PI2 * M - HPI)), RGB(128, 128, 255)
    Pic.Line (0, 0)-(Cos(PI2 * S - HPI), Sin(PI2 * S - HPI)), RGB(255, 255, 255)
End Sub
 
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
    ShowAnalogTime Time, Picture1
End Sub

Whow, that's pretty cool!

[Q_Me]

Damn dude, My analog code was simpler than that.

[Chrome]

k thanks alot dude.

[CVMichael]

PS, the picture must be perfect square, otherwise it won't show the circle properly...

If your analog code is simpler than mine, then why don't you post it ?

[Michael_Kamen]

Don't fight boys......

For a simple digital, you can use statusbar control with a panel set to time style.

[BuggyProgrammer]

the digital one returned True because your timer name is also Time.

I think he's better off with yours, mine needs like a page in a module for all the information. But with mine, you can customly make it. But I dont think he want's a fancy one.

Na guys i'm all right now, and now i see bugger, oops. lol.

Thanks all of you.
