Hi, I have a question where I have a Timer and its current format is: Text(Time(0; 0; Self.Value/1000); "mm:ss"), so it´s minutes and seconds. But it's not that accurate so I want it to have milliseconds too. How do I format the Timer function to also make milliseconds appear?

Hi @Anonymous ,
The timer runs with Milisec. As you are dividing it with 1000, it converts it to secs .

There are some limitations. Like if your app is not active the timer will not run .
May I know what is the exact requirement .

Hi,

By default the timer runs with milliseconds, 1000 milliseconds = 1 second.

I know that the timer runs with millisecs, but the question is: Can I also show the millisecs in the output? Like for example 07:13:345 (7 mins 13 secs 345 millisecs).

You can try to use:

& "millisecs"

It's not working in that way, I tried not converting it, and it does count seconds, but the app cannot process the time that fast on the screen so 1 sec looks like 2 or even 3.

Hi @Anonymous ,
Please use this to Display the Format in MM:SS:Milisec in a label text.

With(

{
Miliseconds: Mod(Timer3.Value,1000)
},
With(
{
Sec: RoundDown(Timer3.Value / 1000,0)

},
With(
{Min: RoundDown(Sec / 60,0)},
Min & " : " & Sec & " : " & Miliseconds
)
)
)

Please give a like to support and accept as solution if I answered it . 🙂

Hi @Abhilash_Swain ,
That's a good way to do it, but I wanted it to appear on the Timer itself, is it possible? If not, I'll just use the Label as a display and hide the actual Timer.
