If you fail to get a system clock in Maestro after going to View and selecting clock from the Maestro window, try the following: Choose View/Reset Windows. This process will bring back any windows that have been repositioned off the screen. If you get the box for the system clock, but can not see the clock itself, this could be related to an improper Font Setting under Preferences. In addition, your user.ini file may need adjusting: For example, the following would produce a System clock box that will not show the actual clock. AppWindow=-835,9 Change to 77,0. Note that Maestro must be closed when making a change to a user.ini file. If you're using Central INI files you must change the ini in both central path and local.
