Describe your issue

Hi, Thank you for your work on this project however I am currently having an issue.

I have a triple monitor setup, 1 vertical screen on the left 2 horizontal centre and right. Currently 11clock is sometimes working on a single monitor or non at all. In the screenshot provided, it is currently not running on any monitor. Randomly it will work on all of them or just stop again its strange to say the least. I have attached a log when it is not working and a second log which has all 3 working.

I am using win11. the format I am using is %H:%M:%S %a %d/%m/%y Thank you for your assistance

Steps to reproduce the issue

Are you using any kind if software such as screen recorders, game overlays (for example nvidia overlay) or any other software thay may capture/render/cover the whole screen?

Hi Marti thank you for your swift reply, I think I know which program it may be https://www.nelsonpires.com/software/dimmer Dimmer controls the brightness of your screens and Flux adds a colour tint in the evening. https://justgetflux.com/ Would there be a possibility to work around these apps at all? Even when these are running; eleven clock does run sometimes. Thank you once again for your time Cy

Try to set ElevenClock to not hide when an app is in fullscreen and see if this works

Cypherthegreat commented 3 months ago

This does work however, If I am watching a video or playing a game the clock will be stuck on top of the screen. Edit1 I know I can hover over the clock or turn it off when I am watching to stop the clock from flickering as the background will try and keep transparency. This is more of a short term work around.

I am afraid there is no fix for this issue, since there is no way for ElevenClock to distinct between your fullscreen chrome window and the screen dimmer.

Cypherthegreat commented 3 months ago

That makes sense, well thank you for your help regardless; I will just use it not to hide on full screen for now. On that note is there a way to make it show only on monitor 1 and 3 for example over everything. Whilst monitor 2 would hide. I understand this would be more work in regards to an additional menu to be able to toggle on mutli-monitor setups in addition to the logic of course. My thinking is if a user is focused on a particular screen, not having the clock force it self above the content on said monitor 1, whilst on other monitors enforcing the keep on top, may prove useful in scenarios. I find my self often looking at my side screens when I want to check my time whilst working etc. Thank you once more.

You can achieve per-clock based settings by right-clicking a clock -> Clock Tools -> Settings for this clock

Thank you, I think that is the best work around. I really appreciate your help and hard work. Have a great evening
