1. Uncompress attached qbw_flipclock_images_(your preferred theme).zip containing images to /home/user/.queen_beecon_dir directory

   http://web.media.mit.edu/~guy/blog/entry.php?14070701 Many thanks to Guy & R E S P E C T for its good and precious graphics work.
2. Uncompress attached qbw_flipclock_beecons.zip containing beecons to /home/user/MyDocs directory (they will be directly accessible from the "import file to buffer" in Advanced Dialog Box)
3. Beecons are ordered in the order they must be imported
   
   
4. VERY CAREFUL NOW
   
   
5. If you only need some widgets, like for example only the hours/minutes digits, simply omit relevant beecon import steps; proceed for imported beecons as per steps 12 & 13 and for omitted beecons as per step 12 & 14
   
   
6. Create 1 new beecon and import 1_qbw_flipclock_year.qbw.txt (y= parameter in script, take note of Instance Id) - Save
7. Create 1 new beecon and import 2_qbw_flipclock_month.qbw.txt (m= parameter in script, take note of Instance Id) - Save
8. Create 2 new beecons and import 3_qbw_flipclock_month_digit.qbw.txt in each (d1= & d2= parameters in script, take note of both Instance Ids) - Save
9. Create 1 new beecon and import 4_qbw_flipclock_weekday.qbw.txt (w= parameter in script, take note of Instance Id) - Save
10. Create 4 new beecons and import 5_qbw_flipclock_day_digit.qbw.txt in each (h1= , h2= , h3= & h4= parameters in script, take note of all Instance Ids) - Save
11. Create 1 last new beecon and import 6_qbw_flipclock_dash.qbw.txt (w= parameter in script, no need for this of Instance Id)
    
    
12. "Edit Cmd" in dash beecon and you'll find this:

13. Be very very careful and replace parameters value with corresponding Instance Ids of each Beecon you created in previous steps
14. If you omitted some of the widgets, make sure to blank the relevant script parameter according to this example:

15. After everything is double checked and you are ready to fire up your brand new Flipclock ... let's activate it with these Update Policies and make sure you have an empty RememberMe field ... "Save & Run" and Crossfingers!!!

Warning!!! Dash widget (currently the one with N900 pic inside) must exist because it drives all other subwidgets. (Just hide or remove all images from it and size it as you like or make it invisible if you don't want it (this big) on your screen)

In Dash Beecon (the one with n900 mockup)...

Set 2 to Hidden

Resize at your will

Blank image 1 (or prepend ";") in Command Title settings so it won't waste time/memory loading unused images

Repeat 1st post's procedure for every desktop

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

I will if I have some spare time.

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

Need to apologize here, dudez.
Turns out that with QBW1.3, new queen-beecon graphics appears behind digits.
This turns out to be a missing "hidden" configuration in original 1st post beecon for command title settings position/visibility
This is what happens:
http://i.imgur.com/d7Gsb.png
To solve, just:
http://wiki.maemo.org/images/thumb/b...px-Snap203.jpg
Either: type a ";" before "queen-beecon.png" in [1]
Or:set [4] to "Hidden"

For every flipclock digit widget

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

qbw_flipclock_beecons.zip(5_qbw_flipclock_day_digi t.qbw.txt) in 1st post is corrected but proceeding as per quoted instructions is quicker than importing and recustomizing all hours/mins digits

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

This is my first experience with QBW, and I'm a newbie with it, so please accept my stupid questions. What exactly is y=?
Can somebody help me with the import thingy?

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

I read the wiki, my head completely sealed. Help!

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

Bump, Bump, Bump.

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

So I guess nobody's helping :sighs:. I better move along in my life, and forget the past. :(

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

Y= is asking to the ID of the beecon whcih displays the year
M= is the ID of the beecon for the month
W= week
d1= day digit
d2= day digit
h1-h4= hours/mins

Since i only use the hours/mins I only fill in thosw details
here's a copy of my flipclock qbw

y=
m=
d1=
d2=
w=
h1=id3
h2=id4
h3=id5
h4=id6

how to make accuweather widget same like yahoo weather any one help me please

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

I'm suddenly having a new problem with my beloved clock...

It had been working flawlessly since last October, but in the past few weeks it got "stuck" twice.

First it was only one digit (minutes), the others kept updating. A reboot fixed it.

Now, since yesterday, the entire clock is frozen. The other widgets on the desktop(s) still work fine.

I have no idea what causes this, probably some other change in the system that had nothing to do with QBW...

The question is, how can I restart my clock without rebooting the N990 or killing hidon-desktop ?

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

you can try open ''network'' @Disconnected->@connected

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

Hi all. I have just decided to put this on my phone. I have it working. Trouble is, every time the clock updates (each minute) it seems to push my cpu usage up to 80 percent for about 20 - 30 seconds. I opened up top to see what was using cpu, and it is image viewer. I reflashed my phone earlier today because I wasn't sure what was causing it. Phone has been fine, but as soon as I set this going, it hammers my cpu and makes the phone slow as ..... Also, I notice the actual minute png won't change until the cpu has died down again. Is it just my phone or is this a real cpu hog? By the way, I have the full flipclock yahoo weather widget running.

EDIT: Well, I decided to flash emmc and firmware to try to fix this. It did. Obviously something was up with my phone. The only thing that seems to be wrong, is that it doesn't update automatically. It does when I tap, change desktops and at startup. Update policies all yes apart from multiclick. ?

Re: [Announce] Queen BeeCon Widget - Flipclock Widget
 

My beecons don't seem to be rounded at margins... Have I missed a step somewhere ?
