I'm not against it but it such a easy solution a person can take care of themselves. Cause I'm sure it will be added right the the priority list at SE like so many other things people ask for.

But.... seriously, how much work can it possibly take? The information is already there, just add an option to display all vs clicking through to see all. Someone can do it in an afternoon, I'm sure.

Same OP posted the same request a year ago and and it went no where.

And that's totally a reason why it shouldn't be done....

Didn't say that I said a person could solve the issue themselves quicker. Instead of waiting for SE to do it which could be long time or even never being done.

I'd support having additional clock displays. We can have what, 10 hotbars and a crossbar all enabled on the screen? It could be an optional UI element like many of those.

I love this idea, I have absolutely no idea why people are against it.

Don't be silly now, you know for a fact this will take minimum effort.

I totally would love having the ability to display like two of them so I could have Eorzea time and Local time, but you have to remember the main thing about the UI is memory. Right now according to SE they sort of full on the memory needed to display everything they want to display.

Just an example when people wanted to be able to see TP bars of party members they had to remove a piece of the UI, specifically the party buffs, they moved them into the Party Menu instead of being on the UI. This was because they could not add the TP bars without removing something due to memory limitations; there just wasn't enough space.

So it is possible there might be memory space issues, but that's just a possibility and would make it not as easy as that to add.

Anyway I agree with the idea o/ it would definitely be convenient if they are able to add it.

It's about convenience. There would be nowhere for me to put a clock in range for me to see it without turning my head. This would just make things easier. It says in the title that it's a minor suggestion, not an emergency request.

I will agree that this would be a nice feature to have, it would be nice to not have to look else where for the real world time. Default the feature to off, but be something you can turn on. As with all things, it might not be that it isn't feasible but system limitations might make the overhead not worth the cost and headache to add in vs. other new UI features.
