57\subsubsection{Analog mode}
58Small, round, analog clock is displayed in the middle of the LCD.
59Time readout, if enabled, is displayed at the upper left.
60If Time readout is in 12-hour (``12h'') mode, AM or PM will be displayed at the upper right.
61The Date readout, if enabled, is displayed at the lower left.
62The Counter, if enabled, is displayed at the lower right.
63The second hand, if enabled, is displayed along with the hour and minute hands.
64Digit display, if enabled, places ``12'', ``3'', ``6'', and ``9'' around the face of the clock in their respective positions.
65
66\subsubsection{Digital mode}
67An imitation of an LCD, this mode shows a Clock comprised of digital ``segments''.
68The Date readout, if enabled, is displayed at the bottom, center.
69The Second readout, if in ``Text'' mode, is displayed at the top, center; if in ``Bar'' mode, is displayed as a progress bar at the top of the LCD; if in ``Invert'' mode, will invert the LCD left-to-right as the seconds pass (a fully-inverted LCD means the entire minute has passed).
70The Counter, if displayed, is shown at the upper left.
71The Blinking Colon, if enabled, blinks the colon once every second.
7212-hour mode, if enabled, will display the time in a 12-hour format.
73
74\subsubsection{LCD mode}
75Based on the Digital Mode, the LCD mode is another imitation of an LCD.
76The settings available in this mode are exactly the same as Digital Mode, but they are independent of Digital Mode.
77For example, you can have the Date Readout enabled in Digital Mode and disabled in LCD Mode.
78
79\subsubsection{Fullscreen}
80A Fullscreen clock is displayed. Show Border, if enabled, will draw a small box at every hour position (1 through 12).
81Invert Seconds, if enabled, will invert the LCD as the seconds pass.
82Second Hand, if enabled, will draw a second hand among the hour and minute hands.
83
84\subsubsection{Binary mode}
85This mode shows a Binary clock.
86The hour is displayed on the top line, the minute is displayed on the middle line, and the seconds are on the last line.
87Circle mode, if enabled, draws empty and full circles, instead of zeros and ones.

89
90\subsubsection{Plain mode}
91This mode shows a ``plain'' clock in large text that takes up nearly the whole LCD.
