Feature request: Show seconds as icon & Thank you

[bradacjan]

Hello,

first of all:

Thank you for your awesome utility

Things like this should not depend on indie developers, Microsoft should handle this issue, and their incompetence in this regard is mind-boggling to me. So thank you for easing the pain – your Ko-fi should show a small donation with my name on it.

And as a second point:

Feature request: Show seconds in the taskbar

Would it be possible to display the seconds counter as an icon for the Win11Seconds in the taskbar? That way we would see hours, minutes and seconds on the taskbar :). I am not certain if this is with Windows' limitations for those icons, but it would be perfect.

With kind regards

Jan

@bradacjan Sorry, for some reason, GitHub didn't enable notifications from this repo for me. I just found that there are open issues here.

Thank you a lot for your ko-fi! ❤️ I regret so much that I didn't receive this issue notification back then!

Tell me if you still use this app (in light of this #3), and I'll check what can be done. It is likely that this would be a completely different feature or even App, like a widget right in your taskbar (currently, the app only contributes a simple taskbar icon where 1134 is just a picture) - I need to dig into the available Windows APIs to find out if a fully functional real-time clock in the taskbar is possible without hacks.

Anyway, you should be aware that this should already be possible via native Windows clock settings, though there are possible problems with performance. You can check out README # Why section, there are some examples and links where you can learn more about it.
