Forums Scripts & Popups Dialog Question

How do i make like the windows uptime in a dialog stay active? like if i bring it up it shows 1hr 6mins 10sec it will go up to like 1hr 6mins 11secs

Use a timer, e.g.:
.timeruptime 0 1 /did -ra $dname id $!uptime(system,1)

on 1:dialog:pcinfo:init:*: {
timeruptime 0 1 /did -ra $dname 27 $duration($calc($ticks / 1000))
}

that is wut i have but it isnt werking
i get the error: * /did: invalid parameters

if i use:
on 1:dialog:pcinfo:init:*: {
timeruptime 0 1 /did -ra pcinfo 27 $duration($calc($ticks / 1000))
}
^----keeps the time at one time and just stays there

can u tell me where i am going wrong at?

Use: $!duration($!calc($!ticks / 1000))

when i use: $!duration($!calc($!ticks / 1000)) it returns a value of 0 . why is that?

$!duration($calc($ticks / 1000))

Hammer used too many !s. I'm not sure why your first script didn't work..looks like $dname didn't do what it should..

why dont it werk tho?

Should work fine.

Bah, I say unto you!

on 1:dialog:pcinfo:init:*: timeruptime 0 1 updateUptime
alias updateUptime did -ra pcinfo 27 $duration($calc($ticks / 1000))

:tongue:

that timer should work fine

Sure it will work fine..if you type it in manually with only one / every time you open the dialog. It doesn't however work in a script file, which is what he wants.
