Digital Clock

This tool is only used to make the digital section or part of the clock. To make a digital clock you need a set of textures with numbers. The NovaGold001 texture has a variety of types and colors to help you make this unique macro.

You can load the file NovaEx37 to get more information about this tool. All measurements are based on a scale of 1/8 in this example.

The clock macro example is made using a cube as the 'container box' and the digital tool.

The digital clock time is shown as HH:MM:SS. If the digital separator width is zero the time will be shown as HHMMSS.

In fact what the program creates is a single polygon - like a sign with the width and height as indicated.

The total width of the clock panel uses the formula: (Digits width x 6) + (Separator width x 2)

 

The texture panel shows all the required entries to make the clock.

The same number or digit will be used to display either the hours, minutes and/or seconds.

There are 2 preset buttons with two different number styles. Both use the texture Novagold001.bmp
