WorldClock Menu Features
 
The WorldClock Menu, located in the menubar
at the top of the screen, is used to select among
WorldClock's several display screens. All
screens display a world map with the locations
of the day and night regions shown.
All screens also show the positions of the sun
and moon, and a digital clock panel with the
current time at the computer's home location.
A Save... menu permits you to save all or
part of your current changes, and also allows
you to save a monthly almanac file to disk,
which may be viewed or printed from a
spreadsheet or word processor.
Clocks - The Default Screen
Depending upon the size of your display, the
Clocks screen displays 5 or 7 worldwide clocks,
set to the locations you choose from the database. Each clock shows the current time, date, and
lighting at that location, the hours different from home, and the distance and direction from home.
Click once on any clock to choose its location from the database. The clock will instantly show
the time at that location.
Sunrise, Sunset, & Twilight Today or Tomorrow
These screens display the time and azimuth along the horizon for sunrise and sunset. Also displayed
are the times of civil, nautical, and astronomical twilight, and hours of daylight.
Sun and Moon Calendars
Use these screens to find information about the sun's declination and the time and position of the
sun at local noon. The moon calendar gives moon phase and the times and location of moonrise and
moonset, and indicates the days during the month of the various moon phases. The calendars are
active input devices, permitting you to quickly find data for any date.
Sundial
See at a glance the current solar situation and shadows. Animate to see the situation over a 24-hour
period. Click on the map to see the situation anywhere.
Preferences - Tailor WorldClock's display settings, including the size, to your individual needs.
Change Settings - Use this screen to select a new home location, set the time or date, or to add,
remove, or edit a database location.
Save... Save the changes you have made, if any, or create and save a monthly almanac file, which
can be opened, viewed, edited, and printed from your spreadsheet or word processing program.
