Sorry to get a bit off-topic, but I have a question: I downloaded this app and love it, but it automatically shows the time in German and I can't figure out how to change the language. I've clicked on the words showing the current time, double-clicked on them, right-clicked, opened the add-ons menu... and still nothing. Does anyone know how to change this? The download page doesn't seem to have any information on how to change the language. |

I experienced the same problem when I first added this to Firefox on my Macbook. If you right-click on the time in the bottom corner as before (and if it's anything like on my system, hopefully this will work), you'll notice a second menu hiding slightly behind the first right-click menu that pops up. Just click on this and choose your language option and hey presto! |

You're right, Teango! I hadn't seen the edge of the second menu peeking out until you mentioned it. Thank you. :)

Hehe thanks for the tip! What worked for me was making the window smaller, then it's displayed in a different place and not behind this menu:) transparent though lolol.

...when you're asked to identify the period/style of a work of art you've never seen before on an exam, and
are about to guess randomly when you notice a short text on the side and recognize the language as
Macedonian, which gives away the answer.
