The font string must be in the format "font,size", where font is valid font name as displayed in the Font Control Panel.

The valid date/time formats for the tooltip and the main display are :

%B	Full month name
%c	Date and time representation appropriate for locale
%d	Day of month as decimal number (01 – 31)
%H	Hour in 24-hour format (00 – 23)
%I	Hour in 12-hour format (01 – 12)
%j	Day of year as decimal number (001 – 366)
%m	Month as decimal number (01 – 12)
%M	Minute as decimal number (00 – 59)
%p	Current locale’s A.M./P.M. indicator for 12-hour clock
%S	Second as decimal number (00 – 59)
%U	Week of year as decimal number, with Sunday as first day of week (00 – 53)
%w	Weekday as decimal number (0 – 6; Sunday is 0)

%#x	Long date representation, appropriate to current locale. For example: “Tuesday, March 14, 1995”.
%s	SwatchBeats
%1-3	SwatchDeciBeats (1 = one decimal point ... etc)

Inserting a pound sign (#) into some codes will change them slightly:

%#d, %#H, %#I, %#j, %#m, %#M, %#S, %#U, %#w, %#W, %#y, %#Y Remove leading zeros (if any).

Characters which do not begin with a percent sign (%) will appear in the same location and unchanged in the output string.
