Hello,
The only reason I got Start11 was so I can keep my taskbar on the right side of the screen - which is mostly OK, but my date/time font is microscopic.
The only way it becomes readable is if I make the taskbar stupidly wide, which I'm not going to do.
The option for taskbar font only applies to the button/icon labels, so either it needs to be applicable to date/time as well or there needs to be a separate option to set date/time with its own font sizing.
Also, I think this is sized differently at home on a 4k monitor vs my office monitor, but even after a reboot the sizing is absurdly tiny for the clock. If AM/PM has to be on it's own line to account for a larger font, who cares, but this is what is looks like (this may be a shade larger than the actual time being shown in Start11): 10:46 AM
Do you by any chance use DeskScapes?
Hello,Sorry to hear you are having issues. But if you just resize it a little wide so that the font can grow it should be big enough. I believe you will need to restart Explorer.exe after you adjust the taskbar size.
Thank you,Basj,Stardock Community Assistant.
I do know how to adjust the bar, the problem is that I have to increase the width of the bar at least 50% from the most narrow/minimal width before the font size for the clock and time increase.
There need to be options for the font/format specifically for the font so you don't have to increase the width of the taskbar more than you want just because the clock stays tiny.
How can the size of the width still be the same if you increase the font size, without causing the date/time to be clipped.
Thank you,

For time, I don't need to know AM/PM - either give us an option to eliminate that and/or use 24 hour time
For date, either let me strip off the year, or just use 2 digit year.
There are ways to modify it so that it allows the font size to increase (like you do for the icons by letting us bloat them up if we want to).
Hello,I have forwarded your request to the Stardock Support Team for their review and recommendations. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We really do appreciate your feedback, Thanks

Hello. I have the same problem with tiny letters of time on 2,5K monitor and vertical bar at left. At left and right exist gap, so if I could resize the font size it would be great! The existing option has no effect. Alfo if I enlarge the bar to the right I will see the first letters of each app - not at all beautiful... version 2.51
Hello,Sorry to hear you are having issues. If you set the taskbar button to always combine or hide text it will not show any text on it.
or
Thank you a lot BASJ. I apologise for not seeing these settings myself.I would like to suggest giving us the option to split the day into 2 lines like this

In this way the font size could be increased.
Moreover the tray icons could have the option to be increased.
