My first crack at making a widget, let me know what I messed up :)

Btw is there a secret to lining the hands of a clock up? It was a pain in the butt.

Always add a picture to be able to see.

Yes, use the "attach" function to upload a screenshot.

It's really easy!
1) All the clock hands must show 12h as the default direction. Make all the adjustments using this position of the clock hands.
2) Using the rotator component remember these "tricks"
- The percent values on clock: 25% is the +15, 75% is the +45.
This is helpful for the horizontal alignment
- When you click on the rotator component you will see a little red point. (this This is the center point of the cicle/movement. Change the height value on the "metrics-position & size" tab to move down the point, where it will be the center of the rotation.
- Make the same work for the other hand/s. All the red points must be in the same position, so all the hands will have the same center point.
Use the arrows of your pc to move them in the position.

I tried to be more clear possible. My best advise though is PRACTICE. ;)

I think that you must change the color of the clock hands. Are black and with this dark background are invisible!
