[Bug 884122] Re: xclock -digital shows seconds but redraws on the minute

 

At least on 12.04 and later there is an "-update" option to set the
number of seconds for updating.  Therefore digital works fine when you
run:

xclock -digital -update 1

So while the default of 60 seconds is odd in digital mode, it works as
described in the man pages.

Title:
  xclock -digital shows seconds but redraws on the minute

Status in “x11-apps” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  i.e., on start it will show, e.g. "Mon 31 Oct 2011 09:17:15 GMT"
  (en_GB format), and stay that way for 45 seconds, then show "Mon 31
  Oct 2011 09:18:00 GMT" for a minute, etc.

  It redraws to show the correct time, including seconds, when the
  window is resized.  Window manager is Unity, version as of oneric-
  updates: 4.24.0-0ubuntu2b1 0.
