SetTimer_

Post by spacebuddy »

I tried using setTimer_ but it does not seem to be supported. What else can I do to create a timer?

:lol:

setTimer_ is a WINDOWS-API and not running on Mac.

See in the help ElapsedMilliseconds(), there's a small example.

And... look in the forum for 'timer' ... :idea:

You should use the PB command AddWindowTimer() which was added in PB 4.40.
If you need a timer for a non-window application, you can take a look into Niffo's
code example which creates a timer via API calls:
