Timer

[xav]

Dear Forum Members,

I'm facing following problem and was not able to find solution on forum and in FAQ

I have something like this

Code: Select all

Let>WW_TIMEOUT=9999
WaitWindowOpen>Program - Ready Status
WaitWindowOpen>Program - Not Ready Status

i need to count how many minutes + seconds passed between program changes it's status

Also this action will be repeated several times, will need to add to get total time.

As result i need to obtain
StayedOnline1="42 min 13 sec"
StayedOnline2= 27 min 54 sec"
TotalTimeOnline="70 min 07 sec"



Please help

The Timer function is the way to go.

Timer>result

Returns the number of milliseconds that have elapsed since the script was started.

Example:

Timer>startTime
..
.. do something here
..
Timer>endTime
Let>elapsed_seconds={(%endTime%-%startTime%)/1000}
MessageModal>Seconds elapsed: %elapsed_seconds%

I've posted a stopwatch example in the Scripts and Tips forum that is using the Timer function here
