I have created this timer behaviour below.
I drag it to a frame script, and specify the delay.
It seems to work fine. However, ocassionally, I can see
via the trace that this frame behavior is executing in frames that
the behaviour is not attached to. I can see no reason why this

I'm not sure if it's your problem or not, but you are trying to spawn a
navigation from a beginSprite handler - in your case from a handler called
by beginSprite. This is a no-no, you can't navigate from beginSprite.

According to the debugger no stimulus is presented
until the pickColor handler is finished and the
program goes to the end command in the beginSprite

Like this:
on startmovie
set the timeOutScript="myTimeoutScript"
set the timeOutLength=16*60 -- 16 seconds , 60 ticks
end

startTimer -- resets the timer

I think what Kerry was on about, as I thought the original comment meant,
was that you can't get the Tempo through the CONTROL PANEL (i.e. the overal

Yes, you can :)
Have a look at the Tempo palette. If you check the second radio box from the
top - "Wait", it will pause the frame for up to 60 seconds.
But it
are three ways: the milliseconds, the ticks, and a timeout object. A
timeout object is probably the easiest to use.
I posted this a couple of hours ago, but I'll do it again to keep it in
this thread.
First, wherever you want to start the timer--say in a mouseUp handler--you

Alvin,
Check out the on timeOut and timeOutLength in the Director dictionary.
The default timeOutLength is 10800 ticks or 3 mins but you can always
set it to the length you want. It should be placed in a movie script.
on timeOut
go to "intro"
end
Hope this helps.

I have this project that when left alone with no mouse

Are you using Director 8? A timeout object would be the answer if you are.
Off the top of my head, an untested sprite behavior:

Does anyone know of a way to make a button that will jump to a certain frame
or marker after the user has pressed it down and held it for a set period of
time? I tried using the timer command inside of a custom handler but it
doesn't seem to be working. it seems like the mousedown eve
but remember the timeout("secondHand").forget() when you don't want it any longer,
cause it continues until it gets the forget() function...

how developer this?
If multiple timers are required, you must create and manage your own.
These can be properties in a behavior, a global list, or even a parent
script. Typically, you use the ticks property to track time in this
manner.
