Actually, no, I don't. Neither when switching buffers, nor when starting up scite, so I think the bug must be something more fundamental. > We probably can make it update on each keystroke, but in all > cases, this > won't be updated each second... IMO the feature makes only sense in the status bar if it is updated somehow accurate. So for example if the time is displayed to a granularity of 1 minute, it should be updated IMO every minute. This means that this would have to be done by a separate thread. I think emacs does it that way if you configure it to display the time in the modeline. > This code (setting these properties) was actually written for > printing > purpose, I used them because it was fun and cool, and as an > example, but > CurrentTime and CurrentDate has no practical use here, actually. Main use would be if you have the editor open anyway all the time and don't want to waste screen space by putting a clock there. But I admit that acting as a clock is not the foremost task of a text editor.
