#2 Formatting issue with tooltip and message

[Erik Kalkoken]

I am working with people in different timezones and I needed an app that shows more than the 2 additinal TZs in the taskbar. You app is exactly what I was looking for.

Howeve, there seam to be a problem with the formatting and I hope you have the time to look into it.

The timezone names and times appear to not be formatted correctly. They are shown clumped together on the left side of each line, with no spaces between the timezone name and the time. I also tried to change the message layout, but that did not seam to have any effect.

I am running on Windows 10 Pro 1903

Hi Erik,

To render the text in the Show Date/Time dialog, I use HTML which nicely formats and aligns. Unfortunately, HTML is not rendered properly, if at all, for the tooltip/bubble text.

All you can do is add spacing between items via the Message Layout dialog.

Another user found a possible workaround by using the TAB character, so perhaps give that a try.

Cheers,

Bernard.

Thanks for the additional hint.

I also tried that, but did not work for me. With a tab char the tooltip
seams to break and only shows the name of the first timezone.

But I can live with the "spaces" solution. And if it bothers me too much I
might just write my own app ;-)

And otherwise your app is great and gives me exactly the information I
need.

Cheers,
Erik
