There are taskbar clock apps which deploy a wider-than-icon thing on the tray, like 1stClock etc. I wonder if it’s possible to create such an object with Autoit. A simple GUI with appropriate positioning and sizing is not enough, since it would cover a part of the taskbar and the icons. Something embedded in the tray, but wider than an icon. What do you guys think, can it be achieved?

Thank you very much, but I’m the worst programmer in the Internal Solar System, and in this case, I’m lacking knowledge.

We are all the worst programmers in the beginning. Wait a little longer, maybe someone has the time to lend you a hand. Meanwhile, look around in the forum, or ask AI for a hint :) 

But I’m the worst programmer for 40 years! 🤣🤣🤣

I can't offer any assistance, as this is quite foreign to me, but here is maybe a project that helps with the clock part?

It is oftenest through the little things which seem so unworthy of notice that great good or evil is brought into our lives. It is through our failure to endure the tests that come to us in little things, that the habits are molded, the character misshaped; and when the greater tests come, they find us unready. Only by acting upon principle in the tests of daily life can we acquire power to stand firm and faithful in the most dangerous and most difficult positions."

Thank you very much. Actually, I think I’ll got no problem with the clock part, but we won’t see it until having a place to draw it on.

From what I can gather, these work by hooking the existing clock?

If that's the case, you'll need to write the hook in a DLL :(

From here:

If the application installs a hook procedure for a thread of a different application, the procedure must be in a DLL

Oh, that’s far beyond my limits. If there is an UDF somewhere I can use, that would be nice, but to realize it… I can’t even understand it.
