Attachments: Example of analog clock displaying timezone

Description Martin Koller 2007-10-31 19:04:04 UTC 
Version:           unknown (using KDE 3.95.00 (KDE 4.0 Beta4))
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.18.8-0.7-default

In KDE3 when I display a different timezone than my local one, I could see this as the displayed TZ name was displayed below the time, and also a tooltip showed this information very clearly.

The analog clock now does not tell me this.

"regression:" only makes it harder to read the title in the bug list (in fact, it chops off more words.. not good =)

Not sure about this one. The digital clock does it, already. Maybe that's good enough? Anyway, set the priority to low.

Example of analog clock displaying timezone

Do you think such a way of displaying timezone is fine?

In fact I meant the digital clock, sorry.
Still, the attached screenshot for the analog clock is fine for me.

All clocks can now show the default time zone on the clock. All clocks can also display several other time zones on the clock tooltip. You can set any time zone other than local, you can set several time zones, the tooltip shows all times and the clock itself shows the default time zone (per clock).

This is trunk, pre 4.2.
