Special-purpose formats useful for timers and countdown clocks include an
MM:SS format and Seconds and Days only.

The alignment options determines how the clock digits are drawn relative to
the reference point on the clock face.

Separate date format options (see above) are only supported on the following
Imagestore versions:

♦ IS2V1 versions 1.20 and above
♦ IS2V2 versions 2.08 and above

If you select a date format for your clock (see the Digital Clock Options), a
Date Position

box is subsequently displayed on the main screen.

Alternate Faces

For digital clocks only, an extra component, the Alternate Face is available.
If an image is imported for this component, then the Face component is used
for even-numbered seconds and the Alternate Face for odd-numbered
seconds. This allows clocks with flashing colons, or other similar features to
be produced.
