That's quite sensible, but there's one big hurdle. We already use the popup for the calendar. I'd like to see a mockup (just sketch on paper is fine) of how we could encorporate the list of N timezones and calendar with events. Alternatively: Should it be an option or even a separate widget. Advantage of the latter is we can then simplify this timezone stuff out of the basic one. Created attachment 113465 [details]
World clocks and at least one event plugin
Sure, I'm attaching three quick-and-dirty mockups.
This first one is how I'm imagining the pop-up could look with world clocks and at least one event plugin.

One more disadvantage of the current UI: when the pop-up is pinned open, the tooltip doesn't appear on hover, so there's no way to view your world clocks. I think there's a big advantage of adding this feature to the existing Digital Clock widget's main view: this widget is installed by default in everyone's panel. That makes the feature inherently discoverable--especially if we want to later make the optional event and world clock features more obvious by adding "+ add events..." and "+ add world clocks..." buttons to it somehow. I've implemented this in the following patch: https://phabricator.kde.org/D27903 Git commit 2130c848e677d491687ee49f28b07a2ee6f8b7c7 by Nate Graham. Committed on 13/03/2020 at 04:52. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. [applet/digital-clock] Show time zones in expanded representation too Summary: Right now time zones are only shown in the tooltip, which is annoying since the tooltip times out aftew a few seconds, so it often closes before I can find the timezone I'm looking for. This patch adds a view for the current tomezones in the expanded representation, and implements a mockup in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395655 showing a proposal for how to present this information. The Expanded Representation is also ported to Layouts in order to make this task easier.
