Hi James,
when i pasted this script to a parent one into d8.5.1 and invoked the getter
method the time was given in a negative manner. I tried to change this line:
> return pStartTime - the milliseconds
to this:
> return the milliseconds - pStartTime
and then it worked fine.
Must've been the type.
All the best
Petro
