Alright, just uploaded version 0.15.2 to extras-devel which adds the self.force_redraw option.

i dont know if other member have my problem on their n900 but after i have upgrade this plugin from 0.14.7 to 0.15.2 my clock (on the status bar is missing)...
the clock is there on my status bar but when i click the clock i cannot enter the clock menu (add alarm/delete alarm)....
i have try removing (purge) advanced clock plugin but after restart my n900 still i lost my clock menu on the status bar...
reinstall the plugins again yet still my clock menu is missing...
any idea why????

have a look here....

@Wonko: Much appreciated that you included it. (I must admit I'm proud of myself, even if it was something you could've done yourself, and even though it was rather simple in retrospect. It was still some of the most advanced python-ing I've done - because so far all my other python is within the confines of the clock style - which means I don't have to spend too much time understand how all the higher-level stuff works. This was across multiple .py files, which was new to me.)

pusak gaok:
Either your /etc/hildon-desktop/status-menu.plugins file got messed up, or /usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/clock-plugin.desktop file got named wrong. (This is linked to the different ways in which Adv. Clock installs itself.)

To better diagnose your problem, paste the outputs of:

Then we can go from there.

What are you using for the images? Perhaps take a look at my flip-clock set and see what the differences are: http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=356

So cool, and nice work with the Nixie number images!

I turned yours green to match my screen better; here they are if anyone else wants them:

Pusak:

How did you change the color of the icon indicated below?

Shouldn't the redraw take place in /usr/lib/advanced-clock-plugin/gtkpixbuftextwriter.py, right before the self.drawable.draw_pixbuf() lines? The other file is referencing a parent class, so it wouldn't be able to draw to the context directly.

@Mentalist Treaceur : done...i just figure it out why the clock & alarms didnt show on my status bar....yes it some how got renamed from
clock-plugin.desktop to clock-plugin.desktop.distribut....
i just have to rename it back to clock-plugin.desktop....
thank you for your help....

@rotoflex : which colour do you mean,is it the clock widgets that i use???

Happy to help.

He means the button in the top left - the one that you click on to open up the application launching menu. (The one with the six small squares.)

I installed your last release and I observe status-menu.plugins file. I attached to you the original and the file after installation of advanced clock plugin. As you can see your installation delete some parts of my file:

[profilesx-sp-plugin.desktop]
X-Desktop-File=/usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/profilesx-sp-plugin.desktop
X-Status-Area-Position=18
X-Status-Menu-Position=20

[wifi-switcher.desktop]
X-Desktop-File=/usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/wifi-switcher.desktop
X-Status-Area-Position=18
X-Status-Menu-Position=21

[simple-brightness-applet.desktop]
X-Desktop-File=/usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/simple-brightness-applet.desktop
X-Status-Area-Position=18
X-Status-Menu-Position=22

[quick-launch-sb.desktop]
X-Desktop-File=/usr/share/applications/hildon-status-menu/quick-launch-sb.desktop
X-Status-Area-Position=18
X-Status-Menu-Position=23

could you solve this?

I had a new small problem. As you can see in my screenshot after the restart the alarm's icon is very very near to the clock, I have to disable the alarm and reset the alarm to see it not so near...
have you any idea?

I attacched two image, near and not near
