  • set text to round(timer.time)

    alternatively replace round() with ceil() or floor()

    he wasn't looking to round the whole "Timer" Number he needs the counter to be with one decimal "4.1" Etc... that is the first problem.

    The second problem he needs the decimal Number to show or go down to Ceros >>> "0"

    I quote:

    P.S: I want the timer to display in the format 5.0 > 4.9 > 4.8 > 4.7...

    Do you know if there is any way that the timer display the whole numbers with ".0"? Like... right now it goes 4.2 > 4.1 > 4 > 3.9... It kinda bothers me xD

    tarek2 Perfect again, dude! Thanks a lot!

    sizcoz Thanks to you too :)

    Your welcome :)

  • tarek2

    2.211111 * 10 = 22.11111

    floor(22.11111) = 22

    22/10 = 2.2

    therefore floor(timer.time*10)/10

    By choosing this method OP decides if they want to run to the lowest, highest or in the middle with their number

    That is exactly what I did on my first comment

    I'm not sure if I understood correctly but is something like this what are you trying to do?

    I use Timers

    But then as I mentioned earlier there is another problem doing that: I Quote

    it's cool :)

    I was more checking that you may you have a different way of doing what the OP needed but with the (Round, floor, etc..) as you mentioned so I could learn it as I couldn't find the way

  • Hey tarek2, here I am again hahaha

    I got into a little problem with the timer again. It works perfectly with numbers below 10, but when it displays a timer of 10 or above, it shows only "10." and doesn't show the decimals... so I figured if I changed the "left(biggergaps_timer, 3)" to "left(biggergaps_timer, 4)" it would work, and it actually did. But now, when timer hits below 10, it shows 2 decimals... like 9.99 > 9.98 > 9.97 and so on. Any way to fix it?

    Hi andreluizgollo

    Try this and see if it works

    Replace the set txt to: left(Timer, 3)

    For this>>>> set Txt to: left(Timer, len(tokenat(Timer, 0, "."))+2)

    I haven't Test it fully but it should work, let me know how it goes

  • tarek2 Worked perfectly! Thanks again :)
