[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 593592] Re: Analog clock 24 hour configuration

[Willi]

Robert, how about this: We keep the themes as is. But when analogue clock clock is selected, you *do not* disable the 24-HourClock toggle option. This would toggle the display of the *hover* text, not the theme.
This, to me, seems to be an acceptable solution for both sides and would finally allow for a clock that makes sense to the majority of people in the world.

Title:
  Analog clock 24 hour configuration

Status in Docky:
  New
Status in “docky” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  This is somewhat related to bug #508547 in the sense that a 24 hour
  analog clock is a terribly odd sight even for countries using the 24h
  system. However, since it seems not possible to have the analog and
  digital clock configured separately(?), I do have a suggestion.

  Basically: 12-24 switching for the analog clock should also be done
  through the option like the one used for the digital one, not by
  selecting a theme.

  Let me sketch the situation:
  I have the clock set as digital and with 24h system on. Now if I feel like switching to analog. After doing so the clock will have the weird 24 hour look, but no biggy there, I'll just right click and turn "24-hour clock" off, right? Wrong! That option is blanked out. Instead, I have to pick select theme to switch back to the 12-hour clock. Seems a bit counter intuitive, no? Especially since changing the theme -also- sets the 24h option off.

  Note: I think if you plan on adding more clock themes, it would be
  better to make a 12h and 24h version of each of them and allowing
  switching between those through the actual option rather than having
  two themes mentioned.
