If I use Metallurgy, I have current time in the OSD

If I use Terra I don't, however Terra does have the following in osd.xml

<clock name="time">
            <area>15,177,120,35</area>
            <font>timefont</font>
            <cutdown>no</cutdown>
            <align>allcenter</align>
            <template>HH:MM</template>
        </clock>
    </window>

and I tried changing the HH:MM to %TIME% and still no good.

I wonder if it is being rendered to the wrong part of the screen so it is there 
but I cannot see it.
Or maybe timefont does not exist.
