Rotating clocks in the Clocks palette

World Clock Deluxe lets you minimize the Clocks palette's size by rotating clocks, that is by displaying clocks alternately so that - no matter how many clocks you have - a single clock is shown in the Clocks palette.

To rotate clocks in the Clocks palette, choose World Clock Deluxe > Preferences or click any clock in the palette and choose Preferences from the displayed pop-up menu.

Click Palette in the toolbar and select the Rotate clocks checkbox. To adjust the rotation speed (or, equivalently, the time each clock is displayed), drag the Speed slider left or right. To add a transition effect between clocks, select Fade, Slide horizontally or Slide vertically in the Effect pop-up menu.

Alternatively, you can also Control-click the palette's background and choose Rotate Clocks from the displayed contextual menu. To adjust the rotation speed or add a transition effect, display the contextual menu and use the Rotation Speed and Transition Effect submenus.

To gain a quick overview on clocks while they rotate, click the clock in the palette: all your clocks will appear in the displayed pop-up menu. If you wish, you can customize the pop-up menu so that it lists only the clocks that are visible in the palette or, conversely, only the clocks that are hidden in the palette.
