[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] poyensa:
Hi mncessna, thanks a lot for your answers! unfortunately Concentrichron still not working in my device after change to 12h-am-pm clock.

My rom has 24h by default without the option to change, so i had to make the followings changes in the registry HkLM\nls\overrides:

ITime = 0

S1159= AM

S2359= PM

STFmt = h:mm:ss tt

With this changes all the clocks in manila home page are now 12h-AM-PM, also the calendar, the apointments, the alarms, etc. But the Concentrichron still not working :( I still thinking it could be a problem of my rom, so please report if anybody can make it work, because i am still very interested to make concentrichron as CHT20 widget.

But if i connot make it working for myself it would be very dificult as i could not test. I want to do the widget on-line with the help of everybody! so i share my little knowledge about widgets, and so maybe others will be interested to create some other widgets we need!

EDITED: rat_2665 has made concentrichron working in 24h time format in post#44

To start is necessary to have the AddonKitchen from here. Download also Concentrichron's files.

Every widget always has a minimum of 4 files:

1) its own mode9 file (CHTmode9_manila)

2) a lua file that defines the CHT widget interface (CHTlua_manila)

3) any number of extra lua/mode9 files defining the widgets behaviour

4) xml file with a manila file list for CHTScheduler

In this case the CHTmode9_manila will be the 1E1A6CCD_manila, but we have to make some modifications before! basically to change the name of the fields and the name of some of the qtc files (with manilaHash.exe) to make it independant of any other widget

The screenshot shows the changes: in principal only the seconds_hand graphic file has been modified to name it diferent of the home analog clock. I have used manilaHash.exe with this string to get the new name: \windows\HTC\Home\Assets\Images\Home\VGA\concentrichronsecondHand.qtc then i rename 2a87d392_manila as 78703194_manila and save it to workspace\qtc, together the rest of qtc files.

Also changed the field for AM-PM. The rest of the fileds and qtc files i think they are different form any other.Finally The "Scene" section must not contain any components. See how it looks like in the screenshot

Then save always as 30182CB6_manila in workspace\mode9 (will be renamed later)

The widgets behaviour will be defined in file 1EC5924B_manila, but also we have to make some modifications accordingly to the changes made in mode9 previously. Also we have to rename this file with manilaHASH.EXE

<<<SCREENSHOT HERE>>>

The file CHTlua_manila has to be created also, but there is a good example to follow.

The xml file is for the CHTScheduler, but does not affect to the work of the widget itself.

Some qtc files will be also renamed accordingly to the changes made in mode9 file

Once the work in the files is finished everything will be added into a cab for installation. This cab has to contain a file named setup.dll. In this process the widget will be automatically installed in a free slot and the manila files CHThome9_manila & CHTlua_manila will be renamed properly, but everything is done automatically by the cab.

I am uploading the kitchen for a simple widget Poy2 Digital Clock with colon. Its based on the Co0kie widget alone digital clock. Is good for comparing the diferences

Marvin i really hope you would be interest and involved in CHT Widgets as you have the knwoledge more than enough in Lua to make the widgets we are drooling for (google search bar, calendar, etc) It will be a pleasure to be your assistant ;)
