Really nice work, I like it. One small thing: when you hide all windows(with button "Show Desktop" or with "Win + M") the clock minimizes and you don't have a chance to bring it up again.(only with "Alt + Tab", but most of the users don't know this combination) May be you add an icon to the taskbar.

Looks great, but I'll have to check it out at home(At the library at the moment.) Try drawing it directly to the desktop. This can be done by using getWindowDC(0) or something like that. Then draw to that DC.

Hi Michael , I' ve checked your submission Transparant Analog Clock.
It's,..like you said...NICE. I really want to understand all of the code, but I can't.
Would you mind to add more comment in your code please ( I mean, all of the 'MainFrm' code only) ?
Especially for the math section, ( maybe you can explain the reason you use certain number like 188, 43200, 2.5, 5, 188, etc).
The code for placing the hour,min, and sec....how does it work?
Although I understand the "pieces" of one line, but I dont get the whole purpose of the line.
Oh, a number that I know for sure is 100 (let me guess,... it's the clock radius, right?:-). Cont'd....

Hi, I'm again. I'll continue my msg,(the program allows 1000 char only ^^)....
Next, the API. I'm new in API. The API I've learned are sendmessage, findwindow(ex),getparent, windowhandle, but the APIs you're using are new for me. I hope you can help me with this (Only the API in your code, not all of them^_^) Maybe you can send me something via email,...it's
syah_hanari@yahoo.co.id

Thanks for all. See you in the next code! And btw....... you've got my "five globes" ^ ^!
