listers,
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
Can anyone told me hoe to create a 10 seconds count down timer?
This is assuming you have Director 8 or later.
Disclaimer: untested Lingo. You may have to debug it yourself.

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.
on beginSprite me

end
on pickColor
if the timer 60 then
Interesting. I do almost everything through Lingo, so I've started to
forget the old ways :-)
That's because you don't have a paranoid Art Director who thinks that
anything can be done linear must be done linear. But I haven't used that
feature myself in a long time ...Because I certainly
Hey Kerry,
Huh? There's no way you can set the tempo to 1 frame every 10
seconds. You
can't do a 10-second delay with the tempo.
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's

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
movie tempo) to go 1 frame per 10 seconds...
The tempo channel will do this, as we all know, but the problems with that
have already been pointed

Sreedhar--
Which version of Director are you using. If you're using 8, I can give you
a timeout script that's easy reliable--much better than using the old timer.
Cordially,
I am afraid what are you trying to mean by delaying of 10 seconds,
because if this is the normal delay of the playhead on a particular
frame, you could have done with that tempo setting and giving it 10
seconds.
