Clock Macro

Taking the liberty to throw a 'feature request' in the questions here, because I believe there might be some solutions for this:

Given Skyline deals with broadcast and satellite concerns, could a running clock (current time) macro and shape be created. This would be able to create a clock(s) of various times to show the area's we communicate with as local time and UTC time.

(feature request: Clock macro - DataMiner Dojo)

There are a number of visio placeholders that would allow you to display certain times as text: [DataMinerTime], [localtime] and [UTCTime]. Futhermore, you can also use the [SUM:] and [subtract:] placeholders in combination with these time placeholders to display the time in a certain time zone. For an overview of all available Visio placeholders, please consult this help page.

Nice option to handle this! Many thanks for your answer!

Cyrus Uible [SLC] commented 1st November 2021

So Michiel, if I wanted to add local time would it be a shape with shape data “Info” and value would be [localtime] ?

Sebastiaan Dumoulein [SLC] [DevOps Enabler] commented 1st November 2021

You can immediately put these placeholders in the text of the shape. It should look something like this: [Sum:[UTCTime],02:00:00]
