Hi Andi,
thanks for your ideas. My extensions allow to have the seconds "always on", it can be configured just that way. My problem is that the Anton font is not scalable, so I'd need to add an additional "AntonSmall" font for your lowest example. I did not want to do that, so I decided to use the original large Anton font also for the seconds. Space is just sufficient for that on the Bangle.js 2.
I doubt that your second (and also third) proposal works as there must be enough space for four full-width digits ("22:22") for the time, and that would not be sufficient if the seconds are at the same line - even without the colon.
In the meantime, I have added another configuration option whether to use the Vector font for date and day of week (which I find far better to read) or the original scaled 6x8 font which uses Anton 0.03. My pull request for Anton 0.04 is updated accordingly, on my own App Loader, I have an "Anton clock with seconds" v0.09 which incorporates this enhancement.
Best regards, Dirk
