AutoRepeat Countdown Timer Widget

Hello to you! I was desperately looking for a widget that allows me to have an hour countdown to open a bar.
I just wish it shows " Still open for 3:48 p.m. ," and it will reset automatically. With bonus (along you are the best ) so may display the style closure schedules " Reopens in 3:12 ."
The only countdown widget I found are for site openings with a countdown day / hour / second ...
Thank you!

Quiz countdown timer

Hi all, i have been looking around for a quiz countdown timer widget (or code) and am surprised to not really find anything - i would have thought this would be a standard addition to Captivate. Basically i want a timer displayed when a user starts a quiz, and when the timer gets to 0, the user is redirected to the results page.
The closest i got to a result was the following link from Lilybiri:
http://lilybiri.posterous.com/timer-widget-to-stress-your-learners
but this code stays on the selected slide until the "next" button is pressed - i need it to automatically go to results page when countdown complete.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

Which 'widget' do you use (could try to check it): Timer widget, Timing interaction, Hourglass interaction? Maybe the first one is no longer available for your version...

How can I create an animated countdown timer?

Is there a way to create an animated countdown timer in Adobe Fireworks (animated gif)?
Thank you

In the Edit workspace, place the images you want to appear in each frame of the animation on separate layers of the Layers panel. For example, to create an animation of an eye blinking, you would place an image of the open eye on one layer, and an image of the closed eye on another layer.
Choose File > Save for Web.Note: If your image has multiple layers, you can also open the Save For Web dialog box from the Save As dialog box by choosing CompuServe GIF Format and selecting Layers As Frames.
Optimize the image in GIF format.
Select Animate.
Set additional options in the Animation section of the dialog box:
Loop Continuously repeats the animation in a web browser.
Frame Delay Specifies the number of seconds that each frame is displayed in a web browser. Use a decimal value to specify fractions of a second. For example, use .5 to specify half a second.

How to make a Countdown timer Script for Live Streaming

I have flash media server...
Here's a Scenario:
User wants to do a Live broadcast.. But.. they don't want to
just press record and have it starting Streaming Right that second.
They need a Delay to prepare for their Live Broadcasts.
Whats the best way for a script for a user to decide how much
time delay they need before Recording Starts?
Ideally it would look like this:
There is a separate window that allows the user to set the
Self-Timer which will give them time to get ready for their live
broadcasts.
User sets length of Time Delay: 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2
minutes, or even up to 5 minutes.
User presses Start Broadcast or Record Button to start
streaming Live Video.
Then.. the Countdown Timer starts... and it displays in Big
Digits... the countdown on their screen... "3...2...1...
Broadcasting Live Now!"
How would I do this?
Hope someone can help

Open the widget library panel and follow the link to Adobe Muse Exchange.
There you find a fine little widget collection, named Andrews Prototypes.
Load it, double-click the file, and in your library you will find a countdown widget.

Countdown timer for Captivate 5

Hey! I'm trying to find two types of countdown timers. One that would display during a slide and the other that can span a few slides (i.e. you have 5 minutes to do the questions on these 3 slides). Anyone know of any widgets like this? I saw the following timer, but it seems to be for Captivate 4 - http://forums.adobe.com/click.jspa?searchID=5036774&objectType=2&objectID=2505616
I guess for the first timer, I could simply have the user look at the countdown timer at the bottom of the screen....
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello,
I'm preparing a blog post on the default widgets that come with CP5, but lack of time... Hope to make it this week.
Anyway there is an interesting widget 'Timer' included. You can set a maximum, let it count up or count down, put it in analog or digital mode etc.
If you put the widget on a master slide the counter will restart for each slide. If you put it on a slide and set it to display for the rest of the project, it will continue timing. As you can hide any object on a later slide using an action or an advanced action, this is the way to go if you want a timer for a sequence of slides. I blogged about Hiding objects, here is the link:
Playing Hide-and-Seek
You can also create a custom timer by using the system variable cpInfoElapsedTimeMS. Tried to explain that workflow in another blog post (was for a Quiz, but is also possible for any other slide):

How to prevent timer from repeats

hello there i've made a countdown timer
and i want it when it finishes counting till 0 not repeating from the beginning but do some action
i uesd the method
timer.setRepeats(false);but it stops the timer from counting
i'm using javax.swing.timer;
and here is the code:
import java.math.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Timer1 extends JFrame {
   JComboBox combo = new JComboBox();

   JButton stop = new JButton("Stop");
   JButton clear = new JButton("Clear");
   JTextField time = new JTextField("");
   javax.swing.Timer timer;
   SimpleDateFormat timef = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss",Locale.getDefault());
   long startT,stopT;
   Date date=new Date();
   public Timer1() {
      super("Timer");
      timef.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
      addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
         public void windowClosing(WindowEvent ev) {
            dispose();
            System.exit(0);
      setBounds(10,10,400,200);
      getContentPane().setLayout(null);
      start.setBounds(10,30,100,24);
      start.setBackground(Color.green);

      combo.addItem("1 Hour");
      combo.addItem("2 Hours");
      combo.addItem("3 Hours ");
      combo.addItem("4 Hours");
      combo.addItem("5 Hours");
      combo.addItem("6 Hours");
       combo.addItem("7 Hours");
      combo.setSelectedIndex(0);
      start.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
         public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
            try {
                 startT=(combo.getSelectedIndex()+1)*60*60*1000; // change if combo box values changed
            catch (Throwable fe) {
               startT=0;
            startT+=System.currentTimeMillis();
            timer.start();
      stop.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
         public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
            timer.stop();
      clear.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
         public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
            time.setText("");
      time.setBounds(150,30,100,24);
      time.setOpaque(true);
      time.setBackground(Color.pink);
      getContentPane().add(stop);
      getContentPane().add(start);
      getContentPane().add(time);
      getContentPane().add(combo);
      getContentPane().add(clear);
      timer = new javax.swing.Timer(1000, new ActionListener() {
         public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
            stopT = System.currentTimeMillis();
            time.setText(timef.format(new Date(startT-stopT)));
      setVisible(true);
   public static void main (String[] args) {
      UIManager.put("Label.font" ,new Font("Times New Roman",0,23));
      UIManager.put("Button.font",new Font("Arial",1,21));
      new Timer1();
}

simply the user chooses a time from the combobox say
1 hour
and then hits the start button so the timer begins to
countdown.
my problem here is i want when the countdown timer
reaches 0 hour 0 minute 0 second the frame exit (or
any action)not repeating the default time .
got it?Ah, yes, now I understand. So when the user chooses an interval, 1 hour in this case, you calculate the number of seconds that make up that interval. (Doesn't have to be seconds, depends on the granularity of the choices) Then you count down that many seconds like I described before. Each time the timer ticks, decrement the counter, and also convert the number of second left back into hours, minues, seconds and display that.
So the counter becomes the data model that everything's based on, and you format it for display each tick.
startTimer() {
int interval = // get the interval selected from the combobox
int seconds = // convert interval to seconds
start timer with 1 second period
actionPerformed() {
   seconds--;
   if (seconds == 0) {
      stop timer
      do whatever we were waiting for
   else {
       convert seconds to HH:MM:SS format and display in gui
}

Visual Countdown Timer

I'm working on my first J2ME project, and I'm trying to figure out how best to create a visual countdown timer. In this application, the user is given a little 'mission' that must be solved. Some missions are timed, and the device must be able to display how much time is left in the mission.
I need the timer to stay on the screen (preferrably the top) even though the user may be scrolling through text to be read, or even making selections (List, Choice, or Textfields). Basically, think of the Ticker (from the bundled Stocks demo), but instead of scrolling static text continuously, I want it to display a timer, countling down from some time (e.g. 10 minutes) and updating (9:59, 9:58, ..., 0:03, 0:02, 0:01) fairly frequently (if not every second).
Is the source to the Ticker 'widget' available someplace?
Also, does anyone have any suggestions how to best do this keeping resource usage as low as possible???
Thanks in advance,
Christian ([email protected])

hmm, always visible...
you could try removing/adding a Command once a second, with its label as the time ;]
pretty ugly way of doing it, but the only way if your dealing with Form's.

Editable Countdown Timer?

Hi there,
Just got Keynote and excited about exploring the possibilities. One thing I'd like have for presentations is an editable countdown timer: something I could insert on a slide, punch in a duration to the presentation start, and let it countdown.
Not sure if this is doable, though was thinking if it couldn't be done through Keynote itself, maybe a Dashboard widget overlaid would work as an alternative?
Found a passing reference to something that sounds close at the following thread, but not sure where to go from here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1182707&#1182707
Thanks for any help or ideas!
iBook G4 1.33 Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Remembered that Apple had a download area for widgets, and rumuged around countdown timers and found one that's nice:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashboard/calculate_convert/321.html
In Keynote, I turned on the preference that allows Dashboard, Expose, and other apps to operate during a presentation. It warns that presentation performance may suffer, though not sure how much of an impact it'll actually make.
So using the timer in Dashboard overlaid over the Keynote title slide seems like one solution (though the impact on presentation performance remains to be seen). An in-presentation counter might be nicer.
Look forward to seeing what Kyn has in his toolbox, and not sure if there might be other things people are using, or additional thoughts/ideas on how this can be done?
Thanks.

Timer widget won't synchronise with playhead

Hi there,
I have inserted the timer widget in a project to let the learner know how much time is left on an audio recording. So, say the audio is 5 minutes. the widget is set to countdown from 5 minutes etc. I want the learner to be able to stop and start the project using the playbar and obviously the countdown needs to stop as well.. However when the project is stopped like this, the timer continues to countdown even though I have set it to synchronise with the project.
Would anyone be able to help me here.
Thanks very much

Nothing that can be done with advanced actions then? Conditional action triggered by stopping and starting the slide?

HTML5 : How to replace Timer widget

Hi!
I have many games that use Timer widget: "Find out something in 10 seconds". The timer countdown from 10 to 0.
In html5, the timer doesn't work. Is there an another to do that? Some king of advanced action with variable or something?
Thanks!
Laurie-Anne

Are the slides paused as the widget counts down? Is it possible to simply have the slide last for 10 seconds, with staggered captions (each one with a number) appearing each second? If you need something to happen once they reach the end, then you could execute an advanced action upon "exit." (Like pause the slide, show incorrect caption, show next button, etc.)
Without knowing the details of your games I don't know if I'm being helpful or suggesting something silly/unworkable, but it's a thought.

Countdown timer bug...

When I set a time duration, say 13 minutes, and hit start, the timer will countdown from 1 minute. I cancel it and repeat; 1 minute. Only by cancelling, changing the duration from say 13 minutes, to 14 and back to 13 does the timer start from 13 minutes.
This is the factory timer app in the clock section.
Anyone else?

Hi Integr8d, I appreciate you posting this. I finally got fed up enough to see if there was a thread on this issue.
I set a lot a of timers throughout the day, and this happens to me at least once every day. I choose a time increment, press "start" and the countdown screen appears with 1 minute counting down. It does this when I choose minute increments or hour increments. It sometimes takes up to three attempts to get it to display my desired countdown time.
Sometimes when this has happened, I have noticed in the blink of an eye between choosing my time and when the countdown display appears that the time increment read, for example, "8 min" instead of "8 mins." The countdown appears with 1 minute, I cancel and toggle the wheel up or down one increment, then back to 8, and I can see the "s" appear next to the word "min." Now when I set my timer, I listen for the audible "click" sound, and make sure it reads "mins" next to my time, not "min." But even then, it doesn't always work.
If I try to set the Apple timer to 0 hours and 0 minutes, it pops to the default time of 1 minute. It seems to me that the problem is happening because the timer app is not recognizing the input of the timer wheel, and is giving back the default time of 1 minute.
This started happening to my 3GS after iOS5 installation, and has continued despite updates. It is one of several regular bugs I have been experiencing since installing iOS5. Various resets to attempt to fix another bug have not improved this bug. I am reporting this as a bug here http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
and I encourage you to do the same, so that Apple becomes aware of this issue.

Best way to implement a countdown timer for a turn based LCCS game

Hello,
I am trying to build a turn based game and sketching out the high level map, so I can focus my efforts towards the direction I should be digging.
One thing I have not seen much in the sample apps is how a turn based game is best handled.
For example, a countdown timer. Should it be a shared property? Or a Baton which is supposed to manage workflows and has a timeout property?
Or, should I forget those two, and time this on the server, although if it would become popular keeping track of all the times in the rooms would cost an arm and leg. Would love to hear some best practices on this.

good idea.
Which one or all of them?

How can I make a countdown timer using After Effects

I'd like to make a video that has a timer that counts down one second at a time. I need one starting at 5:00 (five minutes). Is there a way to easily do this in After Effects without having to manually change the text every second?
Thanks.

I'm glad that you found a solution, but I thought that you might appreciate a suggestion of another approach.
Colin Braley provides a tutorial and example project on
his website that show how to use an expression on the Source Text property to animate text to overcome some of the limitations of the Numbers effect.
There's a similar example in the
"Example: Animate text as a timecode display" section of After Effects Help.
Here are some Community Help searches that can lead you to some ideas, too:
