I made a countdown clock witch a ticker timer. It works fine but the timer is not correct.
Now i tried to change the ticking time to 0.96, 0.97 but still not as accurat as a stopwatch.
How can i solve that problem?

lol, if you go back to March 2009, you asked a similar question and I uploaded a sample file with a countdown clock. I haven't used Opus for years, so I'm really rusty. Hopefully the sample file is attached and it will trigger your memory.

LOL i use Opus for a very long time and some things come back every now and then.
Thanks that there are observant people in this group.

Thanks, Ad

I hope the file was useful. There are also clock actions , start, stop, pause, continue clock, which may be more suitable for what you are trying to do. I have just started using Opus again, but I have forgotten most of it. Old age never comes alone!!

Hi Sandy,
It's the same here. I picked up Opus again because I needed some again for my projects but I find that it takes time to master all the ins and outs again.

Thanks for the script. Do you also have a script where the time doesn't just count down in seconds, but the time on screen is displayed in minutes and seconds? That would help me tremendously.

Many thanks in advance from the Netherlands.

Hi Ad,
Sorry for the delay. Here is a modified file which will show you how to do it. Not very elegant solution, lol.
Edit:- Just noticed a wee error in a script, the tenths of a second and hundredths don't display properly. I'll have a look at it later

Great thanks for now.
Hope i can fix it by myself otherwise i am looking forward to the updated version.

Kind Regards,

Do you need tenths and hundredths?
Sandy

Hi Ad,

Here is a new file which does the countdown.As before, not very elegant solution, but it seems to work
I hope you can extract the relevant parts to use. If you have problems, don't hesitate to ask.
