Check the Time
- Right-click the desktop and choose Gadgets.
- In the Gadget Gallery that appears, click the clock and drag it to the desktop.
- To make changes to the clock style or change the time zone, place your mouse over the clock and click the Settings button (it sports a little wrench symbol).
- In the resulting Clock window, click the Next or Previous buttons to move through the various available clock styles.
- If you wish, you can enter a name for the clock in the Clock Name field. To change the time zone, click the arrow in the Time Zone field and choose your local time.
- Click OK to save the clock settings.
Tip You can display a second hand on your clock by clicking the Show the Second Hand check box in the Clock settings dialog box.
If you're on the road and want to keep track of the local time and the time back home, you can display more than one clock by simply dragging the Clock gadget to the desktop from the Gadget Gallery again. Make changes to the time zone settings and even use two different clock styles to tell them apart at a glance.
