I'm working on a program that will monitor the time he has been connected to a VNC session, because he does remote support... etc.

The label flickers like a pissed off seizure, and I'm stuck doing a logical function (Should be easy)... Start/Stop timer...

I just can't get the math to work, my attempts were stripped right before I pasted the script so you guys wouldn't know just how bad I am with math... >.<

You will see the main 2 problems in the code below... :)

If you continually change the label text it will flicker so don't keep changing it when there is no need.

For example

$LaelSetCase1 = False
.
.
.
while $start
 if not $labelsetCase1
   GuicTrlSetData($label.....
   $LabelSetCase1 = true
 endIf
wend

here is the change it wont flicker anymore.

by the way you need to change putty.exe back to your vnc.exe

@Martin

Great suggestion! Dunno why I didn't think of that. :)

@unixu

I actually don't see what you changed in the script... :idea:

I thought I edited that in... apparently not... I found it... :P

I'm probably going to stick with Martin's idea so that I can eliminate Sleeping in the proggy, but thanks for all the support guys...

Any ideas on how to effectively Start/Stop a timer? I'm giving the above link a look as we speak. :party:

look over your StartClick function and you will notice what i changed :)

you can change the gui constantly without problems but you must add a small delay.

the problem the delay is sleep

sleep pauses all functions so the sleepdelay must be abstracted from the timer just look you will see :party:

sry dont have much time gtg to work

Ahh... No Start/Stop ideas in the above link... :)

If I was just a bit smarter with Math I really believe this would be cake... My instructor always said Math was an important part of programming, which I never believed until now... >.<

you have to bind the stop button to a hotkey

if a while is running in ja func you cant cut the while because the guy will not respond

Stopping is easy... "Restarting" "Resuming" is the hard part... :party:

Because the previous time has to be calculated in with the new into the timer... :idea:

First Post with Script has been revised.

@unixu

I'm listening to you, sorry my posts haven't seemed like it... :P

I removed the loops, and went with Adlib instead, as far as Sleep() I try to avoid that as much as possible. :P

It's just a habit I've formed...

The only thing I need to figure out now is How to save the time, so that I can "Resume" the timer... :D

Upper management is probably thinking 'Jeez... Give this guy a math lesson...' The logic seems easy, it's just one of those things I can't think straight on... :D

For reference:

First issue was resolved with Martin's method. (Only update the label with it needs updating)

Second issue was resolved by (http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...mp;hl=stopwatch)

@unixu

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions, and please don't let the fact that I used Martin's idea discourage you from trying to help me in the future, God knows I'll need it... :)

I am brain-dead and still need help... Simply put... WHY doesn't this work???

Func StartClick()
    If $FirstRun = True Then
        $Begin = TimerInit()
        $FirstRun = False
    EndIf
    AdlibEnable("Timer",1000)
EndFunc

Func StopClick()
    $Begin += TimerDiff($Begin)
    AdlibDisable()
EndFunc

Func TimerClose()
    Exit
EndFunc

Func Timer()

    $Difference = TimerDiff($Begin)
    
    _TicksToTime($Difference,$Hour,$Min,$Sec)
    GUICtrlSetData($Label1,$Hour & ":" & $Min & ":" & $Sec)
EndFunc
