analog clock

[cj]

Any body know a neat trick to put a analog clock on a form that would be
updated by a timer?

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the
Western Spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun.
Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-eight million miles is an
utterly insignificant little blue-green planet whose ape-descended life
forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches
are a pretty neat idea.

cj,

In this is a nice sample of a simple anolog clock

In code samples windowsform advanced GDI

I hope this helps,

Hi cj,

Thanks for your post!

To implement an analog clock, you need to use GDI+ to draw the clock
effect.

Besides what "Cor Ligthert" provided, the articles following may provide
you some more information:
"Analog clock control in C#"

Hope this helps!

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
