Methods that override the behavior of standard methods should generally be avoided -- other users of this class might depend or assume standard behavior (now and in the future). Instead, you should introduce new methods that do exactly what you want, and then use them in those cases. Additionally, in this particular case: Is there any need to instantiate the time view if it's not supposed to be visible anyway? Bye, Axel.
