This is the code I have for a count down timer in days, hours, minutes, and seconds but I would just like a timer that counts up from 0 until what ever number I would like and I would like to be able to control the pace
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2012,3,5,13);
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
function loop(e:Event):void

How do you make a count up timer in flash? I have the custom counter I made in photoshop and I can get it to count up, but not with the dynamic text field I've created in flash, what do I need to do.simpl code:
var startT:Number = 1;
var endT:Number =8000000;
var tf:TextField = this.createTextField('counter', this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10, 10,

I've created a timer to count elapsed time on a flash player of mine, I can't figure out how to control it though. For example I need the pause/ play buttons to (you guessed it) pause and continue the count.The dynamic text field that keeps count is simply called "count" and the pause button is btn_pause and play button is btn_play
Code below.
start_time = getTimer();
countdown = 7200000;[code].....
Is it possible to make a count up timer (from a specific date, birthday for exemple) from the count down timer ?
I've tried to change a few things (I'm very bad in programming) but I can't get the date properly.
If not, do somebody know a count up timer (.fla) that I can use ?
how I could easily add more dates and dynamic text boxes on the stage without stressing the CPU too much. And I'd also like to know how I can convert everything to hours so it only shows everything in hours? Here is the code I have found and adjusted.

View 3 RepliesI made a simple count up timer, it is working just fine but I would like to have the %-sign next to the numbers so it would look as a preorder. But as I add "%" sign to the function, the counting never stops (at 100% any more), and continues counting.

I have this code for my timer, it counts down alright. BUT it is very buggy it most commonly counts down by 2 when it is meant to count down by one I have even watched my brother play our game and it went fron 20 to 7

Just a quick question about the Timer class of Flex 4. I have a timer object with a set repeatCount. At the end of the set number of cycles, the TIMER_COMPLETE event is triggered and the timer.running changes to false. Now I can call the timer.start() function again. My question is that at this stage, does it also set the repeatCount property back to zero. Or does one have to explicitly call the timer.reset() function.
View 1 RepliesCode for timer:
var oneSecTimer:Timer = new Timer (1000,60);
oneSecTimer.start();
oneSecTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER , timerListener );
oneSecTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE , onTimerComplete );
function timerListener (event:TimerEvent):void {
secs.text.text = oneSecTimer;
} function onTimerComplete (event:TimerEvent):void {
gotoAndStop(5);
days=days+1;
}
When I run the movieclip I get, where the timer is supposed to be showing the countdown, a "[object timer]" message instead.
I want to create a dynamic text box. set a (start) and (stop) time. have the time change along with each frame. its a blank movie with 150 frames. this is in frame 1.

Any tutorials or source files for the timer. Just a simple timer that counts down by minutes and seconds for 10 minutes. The closest I got are a bunch of codes that I'm not really good at translating. Just a simple timer that will trigger the end quiz page when time is up.

I am trying to declare private variables that will be used elsewhere in my flex mxml main application. But I need to only create the variables when their is an equal number in my xml file.
My xml snippet looks like this:
<POIs>

<name>jane</name>
[Code].....
Is it possible to wait until the xml has loaded before declaring these variables?
I have 10 dynamic text fields inside a movieclip, which are populated via an XML file. However, the xml file sometimes has less than 10 items. It never has more than 10. This results in the following error, which is normal. I need the code to count the amount of items in the XML file and then create a for-each loop. I can visualize it, but I don't know how to write it. Basically what I need the code below transformed in to is this... (notice the #'s)

View 2 RepliesI've found a simple count up script over on Actionscript.org
var count:Number = 0;
var maxNum:Number = 1250;
var num:Number = 1;
this.createTextField("txt", this.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 100, 50);
[code]....
This works great for my use, but now I am trying to figure out how to make it count down. I've tried changing everything to opposites like count=1250 and maxNum=0 (I think this would be the minNum instead), count+=num to count-=num, and count>=maxNum to count<=maxNum.
trying to create a slideshow with a timer. I have 5 pictures on 5 keyframes but it loops once and then messes around.

I'm trying to create a countdown timer from 42 to 0, that work pretty good, but I want to make more space between the the number 1 0 something like this
Code:
timer = 42;
countdown = function(){
timer--;
if(timer==0){
clearInterval(countdownInterval);
}} countdownInterval = setInterval(countdown,1000);
How I can make it?
I know you can trigger a function by adding through a timer like this i ActionScript3:
Code:
myTimer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER_COMPLETE, timerDone);
But what I'm trying to do is just have a timer create a delay in between a couple of statements within the same function. Is that possible? Something very simple would do, like
public function changeVar():void {
myVar = "red"
xxxTIMER CODE HERE
myVar = "blue"
}
How do I leave myVar equal to red for 5 seconds and then have it change to blue?
I was thinking about indenting a countdown timer in my new room escape game, and I would like to know how to create a countdown timer with a set time field in minutes, rather than the other that goes by retrieving a date first. E.g. I would like to create one that counts down from 20 minutes, rather than one that gets the time and minute and date, and shows the correct time fields.
View 2 RepliesI just want to create a simple timer for a car game which notes the lap time each time you cross the finish line. I then want to be able to use the "gotoAndPlay (frame number)" once either a certain amount of laps have been completed or when the timer hits a specified number.I have exhausted tutorials, none of which actually work - what im looking for is 'i think' actually quite simple but i am having great difficulty.... The car game tutorial with 4 parts which seems to pop up everywhere does not help as it is very complex and can only be used when the game is designed in the way that the guys has made it.
