Hello

I have another really frustrating issue

I have a basic timer with AutoStart set to false and a duration of 60000

Why doesnt the timer start when I call Timer.Start in a button click? Should be so simple??

No errors nothing!

Hi @paulinuk ,

Put Start as a Variable (varTimer used here) then on the button

UpdateContext({varTimer: false}); UpdateContext({varTimer: true})
