Hello,

how can I create a client side clock? (only text, but HH:mm:ss format)

Is there any client component or must I call every second a bean property that returns a time string ?

Calling every second would cause a very high load on the network

Thanks,
Michael Schmuck

Hi Michael,

yes, a component like this is required - we'll add it short term.

You are 100% right about going to the server each second does not sound 100% healthy...

Hello,

maybe you could create something like an stopwatch.

As an property an initial date object, then a switch for inc. or dec. an given amount milliseconds at an given time period.

e.g. properties

new Date() // Initial
1000 // add 1000 ms
1000 // after eatch second

so we can realise an simple clock but also an countdown or something else

Next update (tomorrow) will contain a CLOCK component - with which the current date or time can be output in diverse formats.

Not yet a stop watch, this will be a component on its own.
