Plasma 5 Clocks beclock clocks plasma plasmoid time
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): https://github.com/thevladsoft/BeClock-plasmoid
This is a (hacky) fork of KDE's digital clock, so it looks like the old BeClock kwin effect (https://store.kde.org/content/show.php/BeClock?content=117542).
It also have a "flash" effect every hour (when the clock clicks XX:00).
You can:
Modify the ring's colors
Disable/Enable the flash
Disable/Enable gradient effect
Add a background image of your distro (or any image you want, even remote images).
I want to make it more configurable, so if you have any suggestion for making it more appealing, please tell me (it will depend of my abilities as programmer :) )
Note: if when adding the date the text doesn't appear vertically centered, resize it a little until you like their positions.

Option to directly hide time.
Changed configuration page a little, to make it more logical.
3.0+BE-3.6 1 year ago
Better animation code and fix of a weird bug at minute 01.

Time font size can be proportional to widget size or fixed size.
Date font size can be proportional to widget size now.
Font options in config appear only if fonts are visible.
3.0+BE-3.4 1 year ago
Option to turn off backgrounds shadow.
3.0+BE-3.3 1 year ago
Date font size is now adjustable!
3.0+BE-3.2 1 year ago
Animation optimization: Rings retracts clockwise when they reach 0 s/m/h (it used to be counter-clockwise, which is weird for a clock).

Icons on config pages added/changed

Now the radius and width of rings is configurable. It's a multiplier of the plasmoid size.

Now choosing "transparent" as text color will make disappear correctly.
3.0+BE-2.1 2 years ago
Added an optional ring for the seconds.
You can change text and shadow colors. Remember you can use "transparent" as the color.
3.0+BE-2.0 2 years ago
You can add a background image. There are included images for many distros: Arch, Debian, Fedora, Kde, Kubuntu, Neon, Suse and Ubuntu and you can use your own images, even remote images.

hi, can you add an option to adjust the digital clock font size? and to hide the digital clock?

Would it be possible to get rid of the background circle of the clock? It says 'No background' so it might or might not be intended?
Another nice option to have would be the font size of the time.

What you call background is a shadow, to make it more visible on certain backgrounds, but I agree that not always looks good so it can be turned off now.
For time font size, current behavior is that it's proportional to plasmoid size. Maybe I should add an option to change between that behavior and a fixed size, to comply with all tastes.

The only thing I can ask for as I don't see it is to adjust the size of the font for the date that appears on the clock

1. Make it so that if I set both (number's) text color and text shadow to transparent, then I can only see the clock-circles.
2. Make the gap between timezone and clock be adjustable (size in pixels).
3. Make the thickness of (each of) the circles be adjustable (size in pixels).
4. Make the gaps between the circles themselves be adjustable (size in pixels).
5. Make the central unused space be adjustable (size in pixels).
6. Unimportant: Ideally there could maybe be a color-choosing popup or dialog. Ideally KDE would have something built-in for this. Similar to this maybe: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=color+picker+krita&t=canonical&iax=images&ia=images&iai=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kde.org%2Fimages.community%2F0%2F0e%2FColor_selector_mockup.png
I have a few more ideas, but those are even more niche aesthetic preferences.

I could paste it here again, but you can also read it if you:
* use Firefox's Reader view (Ctrl+Alt+R)
* read the source code of this website
* zoom out with CTRL+zoom

2 and 5 are a little hard mostly because this is a (messy) fork from the original Digital Clock, and I'm not sure what to change to do this properly (entirely my limitation). So no promises.
Though, if I understand 5 correctly, I think it could be solved by 3 and 4?
6 there is a color choosing dialog. Just click on "main color" or any of the others, and it will show. Maybe I should make it so the dialog appears when you lick in the text box too?
Greetings.

Number 5 is very similar to number 4, except it isnt between hours and minutes or minutes and seconds but between hours only. I guess you could maybe implement ideas 3, 4 and 5 entirely by having two adjustable numbers for each of them: starting radius and ending radius. E.g. right now they might be 35-38 40-43 45-48 (I'm excluding shadows right now for simplicity of the explanation). So by setting the inner boundary (or inner radius) of hours, I'm effectively adjusting the size of the central empty area.

Any ideas of how it should look in the panel?
