[SOLVED] Timer

[alpine]

Great, both solutions work. Thank you
Have a nice day

If the accuracy is important, I wouldn't count on a solution which decrements the seconds by itself rather than calculating a delta from the saved timestamp at the beginning. TTimer works with WM_TIMER messages and the docs says they can be coalesced when not processed quickly enough. Also any delay in processing may sum up into a cumulative error.

If you mean my example, I decrement in one timer each second a value to display but other timer (the real) is not harmed by it ...
