Post subject:  Quadrant (Day 23)


Today's clock uses antialiased lines and shifts the center of the clock to keep the hour, minute or second hand in view (select by hitting the button). It was inspired by the Doomsday clock's (day 18) quarter view of the clock face.

The antialiased line drawing flickers a bit and the center point is too jumpy. The combination of antialiased lines for the hands and filled rectangles really doesn't look balanced and since they use different coordinate references I had to limit the accuracy to single pixels. There are lots of little things that could be spruced up in this one to make it a keeper, I think. The hour hand had a bug in the angle computation in the video; it is corrected in the source.
