    feature request: analog clock "always on top"

    Now that KDE 4 has wonderful graphics and widgets, I was wondering if it would be possible to get an analog clock widget with an "always on top" feature.

    I actually prefer analog clocks in general, and having one on top would free up the taskbar space and allow me to move it out of the way [I prefer the lower left corner right above the taskbar, which is pretty much unused for most uses anyway.]

    Having an option to set the transparency/opacity would be a great thing too.

    I think other widgets have these property, but not the clock. I'm not sure whether this is a KDE setting or if the kubuntu team can implement it.

    Thanks.

    I think what your asking is a KDE request & not a Kubuntu one.
