Re: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
I created a Class called SetTimer it lets you call a function after a
specified time in second... And setting how many times the function is
executed with the given interval If you are interested tell me...

it will repeat on and on. It's also best practice to clear an interval
before you set it (in case it gets set twice).
If you only want the function called once you can also use
_global.setTimeout( func, time ).

Hi Gustave,
Here is the answer to your query.
The best way for any timing related task is to use Interval.
Here is the syntax:
var variable name:Number = setInterval(function name to call,
time
interval in millisecond);
function function name to call(){
//do your task here..
}
The following is the example for your inderstanding testing.
this.createTextField(date_txt, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 10,
10, 100,
22); date_txt.autoSize = true; date_txt.selectable = true;
var date_interval:Number = setInterval(updateTime, 500, date_txt);
function updateTime(my_txt:TextField) {
my_txt.text = new Date().toString(); trace(my_txt.text); }
I hope, this is well enough to solve your problem.
Thanks regards,
Parvaiz Patel.

RE: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
Don't forget to clear the interval inside the function you call - otherwise
it will repeat on and on. It's also best practice to clear an interval
before you set it (in case it gets set twice).
If you only want the function called once you can also use
_global.setTimeout( func, time ).

Re: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
hi,
i think this might help with the flash timer
stop();
pausedAt = getTimer();
this.createEmptyMovieClip(frameLoop, 1);
frameLoop.onEnterFrame = function() {
if ((getTimer()-pausedAt)/500=6) {
play();
this.removeMovieClip();
}
// end if
};
I have used this many times.

Re: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
Hi,
you asked this question before, and I replied to it, why not continue that
thread instead of reposting it?
You are on the right track though, there are different approaches:
1. waiting a number of frames:
var curFrame:Number = 0;
var frameRate:Number = 12;
var waitFrames:Number = 20*frameRate; //wait 20 seconds
this.onEnterFrame= function (){
curFrame++;
if(waitFrames== curFrame){
trace(llegamos);
}
}
Or use setInterval:
var intervalID:Number = setInterval(myFunc, 20*1000);//set interval to 20
secs
function myFunc(){
clearInterval(intervalID);
trace(llegamos);
}
The other thing is that you have to understand why your code is wrong:
var now = getTimer(); //get milliseconds passed since swf start FOR
EXAMPLE 123541
var seconds:Number = now/1000; //seconds passed since swf start 123,541
var later:Number = seconds+20; //143,541
this.onEnterFrame= function (){
//seconds does not change, later does not change so each frame we compare
123,541 with 143,541
//even you would update seconds, the chance that seconds becomes 143,541 is
near 0.
if(seconds == later){
trace(llegamos);
}
}
trace(seconds);
hth,

Re: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
try using undocumented setTimeOut or setInterval instead
say you have a function foo
with setInterval:
var secondsToWait:Number= 20*1000 //20 seconds
var interval_ID:Number=setInterval(this,foo,2)
function foo()
{
clearInterval(interval_ID);
trace(llegamos con setInterval);
}
with setTimeOut
setTimeout(this,foo,1000)
function foo()
{
trace(llegamos con setTimeOut);
}

RE: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
hi gustavo,
your first problem is that you have a gotoAndPlay loop. that means that
every time you go back to frame 1 you are re-creating your now variable, so
it is never going to have a chance to get bigger. secondly, the timer does
need to be updated checked inside your onEnterFrame (i used a
setInterval), so that it can be compared with your later variable. try this:
stop();
var startTime:Number = getTimer()/1000;
var later:Number = 20;
var timeCheck:Number = setInterval(checkTime, 100);
function checkTime(){
var currentTime:Number = getTimer()/1000;
var elapsedTime:Number = currentTime - startTime;
if(elapsedTime = later){
trace(llegamos);
clearInterval(timeCheck);
}
}

Time is never exact because frame rate is independent from time. Just check
if it's greater or equal to the time you desired.
var now = getTimer();

Subject: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
Hi, I'm trying to set a timer to trigger a event after 20 seconds or
less, but so far i have this code, but with no results
someone help me? .
I don't know how could I got into but some help might be needed
this is the code: is inside the first frame of a movie clip and the 4
frame has: gotoAndPlay(1);
var now = getTimer();
var seconds:Number = now/1000;
var later:Number = seconds+20;
this.onEnterFrame= function (){
if(seconds == later){
trace(llegamos);
}
}
trace(seconds);

RE: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
Gustavo,
stop();
var later:Number = (getTimer()/1000) + 20;
this.onEnterFrame = function (){
var now:Number = getTimer()/1000;
if(now = later){
trace(llegamos);
delete this.onEnterFrame;
}
}
trace(later);

Re: [Flashcoders] setting a timer in flash 8
Btw when setting a start time other than 0 to the timer, it's the
difference between both that will be calculated.
Example :
you app starts at 0ms, but for some reason you need some data loaded
that your timer needs before it starts. You need to take into account
the time elapsed.
var wantedEnd:Number = 2000;
var curTime:Number = getTimer();
soundTimer.startTimer(curTime, wantedEnd);
the Timer won't go for 2 seconds, but an event will be triggerred after
2 seconds of the Application launch.

I made a Timer class that I use for another set of Classes I wrote.
Here is the class itself, it's pretty precise and reliable so far.
Hope it Helps !
usage :
import ca.daroost.utils.Timer;
soundTimer = new Timer();
soundTimer.addEventListener(onTimerDone, this);
soundTimer.addEventListener(onTimerStart, this);
soundTimer.startTimer(0, 2000); // 2 second timer
function onTimerDone(evtObj:Object) {
trace(Timer is done after +evtObj.delta+ms - wanted time is :

function onTimerStart(evtObj:Object) {
trace(Timer has started);
