What have you tried? Share a project link or screenshots and someone can give you advice. It’s a lot to ask everyone how to make a full transparent digital clock. It’s better to ask for help with a particular _step_ in the process.

What is your end goal for this digital clock?

If you simply need to display the time, you can use these blocks

if you need to time something on the screen, you may want to use something like this
