Clock

URL Parameters

LAPLACE Clock has no accounts and stores no configuration on any server. Every setting is a query parameter in the address bar, and touching any control in the configurator writes it back immediately. That is the whole mechanism behind one-click sharing over a URL — send someone the address and they open the exact same clock

You rarely need to edit these by hand; the configurator is there for that. This page is for anyone generating addresses in bulk, or nudging a value past what a slider allows

Parameter List

Any parameter absent from the address falls back to its default. Booleans are 1 for on and 0 for off

Example

https://clock.laplace.live/?color=%23ffffff&color2=%23888888&fontString=Orbitron&position=center&showDate=1&timeSync=1

The # in a color has to be written as %23 in a URL. The configurator handles that for you when it builds the address

Stability and Fallbacks

  • Parameter names are never renamed or repurposed. Streamers paste an address into OBS and often leave it untouched for years, so the names stay compatible no matter how the internals change. The var(--clock-font-*) font values from older versions are likewise mapped to real font names automatically
  • Invalid values fall back safely instead of erroring. Locale, timezone, alignment, and every date format are validated before rendering: anything unrecognized is treated as unset, and position falls back to flex-start
  • Background color is not a URL parameter. The configurator's Background Color is a browser-only preview aid, never written to the address, and the background in OBS is always transparent
  • Settings - What every option means and the values it accepts
  • Using It in OBS - Getting the configured address into OBS
