When the Xfce4 panel analog clock displays an hour, minute, and second hand, it is not always easy to tell the three hands apart in the small space available in the panel. The attached patch displays seconds as a dot instead of an entire hand and shows the minute hand as a thin line, making all three components more visually distinct.
Created attachment 3664 [details] Draw second hand as dot, minute hand as thin line
Created attachment 5922 [details] Rebased patch I rebased George's patch against git. I personally find the minutes more visible on a 26px dark panel. The seconds are barely visible and that is precisely what makes me able to see the minutes. I would assume a better option would be to let users remove the seconds handle, but in the meantime I quite like this patch. HOWEVER: we do need people who have a limited eyesight to test the patch and tell whether the thickness of the minutes is a problem for them.
