- INSTALLATION
- ------------
-
- 1. Place the files WPCLOCK.EXE and WPCLOCK.HLP in a directory of your choice,
- for example C:\WPCLOCK
-
- 2. In the Windows program manager (or desktop manager you are using), add a
- program item to a group; use the 'Startup' group if you want the clock to
- automatically start when Windows starts. Sample specification:
- Description: Wall Paper Clock
- Command line: C:\WPCLOCK\WPCLOCK.EXE
- Working directory: C:\WPCLOCK
- Substitute the actual drive + directory where you put the files in step 1.
- Press OK. The 'Run Minimized' setting has no effect; the clock cannot run
- iconized.
-
- 3. Launch the program. The clock will initially appear at the lower right
- corner of the screen. Note that if the clock is sitting on top of other
- windows, the background will be gray, otherwise your wall paper should be
- showing thru the clock.
-
- 4. If your wall paper is predominantly white, the clock may be difficult to
- see; use the clock's setup screens to change the text color.
-
- 5. To change options (font, color, chimes, alarms, etc), see the following
- section.
-
-
- ACCESSING THE SETUP SCREENS
- ---------------------------
-
- Mouse Method:
-
- 1. Position the mouse over the clock. Notice that the cursor changes to a
- square box.
- 2. To access the Main setup screen, press the left mouse button. Alternately,
- to go directly to the Alarm setup screen, press the right mouse button.
-
- Keyboard Method:
-
- 1. Use the task manager or Alt+Tab to make the clock the foreground task.
- 2. To access the Main setup screen, press the 'S' key. Alternately, to go
- directly to the Alarm setup screen, press the 'A' key.
-
- The Chime, Font and Color setup screens can be reached from the Main setup
- screen. The online help file explains the screens, if necessary.
-
-
-
- NOTE
- ----
-
- If you are using a automated wallpaper changer and the wallpaper behind the
- clock does not change, select "Help" from the clock's setup screen, search on a
- keyword of "Troubleshooting" and view the section on "Problems with Third Party
- Wallpaper Managers".
