Hi,

I'm going to try this vagrant clock thing...  ;D

It's better than the other suggestion you made, I think (add a new item to the Menu bar), because I like the bar hidden. Thanks for the tip, I'll let you know how it went.

Hi everyone,

Since I've installed Lite on a 15" MacBook Pro, I've decided to hide the Menu bar to maximize window display. Thing is, when i do that, I can't see the clock anymore, unless I trigger the Whisker Menu with the Command key.

I believe there's a way to add the clock, without or without date, in the top bar / application bar, but i can't find where in the Settings.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

PS: I thought I could easily add a screenshot to illustrate what I mean by top bar, but you can't easily do that, and I'm pressed for time.

Read here https://docs.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel/add-new-items Also, you can open a terminal and type
Code: [Select]
xclock & to display an analog clock on your desktop you can move around and place it wherever you want.

If you prefer a digital version then
Code: [Select]
xclock -digital & will do. https://imgur.com/84ulRux
Read its man page to learn a bit more
Code: [Select]
man xclock
Hope this helps! :)
Without each others help there ain't no hope for us :)
