Huh? There's no way you can set the tempo to 1 frame every 10 seconds. You
can't do a 10-second delay with the tempo.
There are three ways: the milliseconds, the ticks, and a timeout object. A
timeout object is probably the easiest to use.
I posted this a couple of hours ago, but I'll do it again to keep it in
this thread.
First, wherever you want to start the timer--say in a mouseUp handler--you
do this:
timeout("myTimer").new(10000, #myHandler, me)
That creates a timeout object. After 10,000 milliseconds (10 seconds), it
will call a handler named myHandler. So, you need a handler:
on myHandler
showNextQuestion --call a custom handler
timeout("myTimer").forget() -- don't forget to dispose of your timeout
object
end myHandler
