Re: Simple countdown timer
Ah ok, I removed the menu temporarily as I won't need it, least not in it's current form.

Re: Simple countdown timer
Thank you 
Well after a few hours, here's where I've got to so far:
ToDo:
1. Get the RoundLine Meter working.
2. Remove reliance on NirCmd.
3. Add Actions to close programs.
4. Possibly add MouseScroll actions to replace the + and - for setting the timer. Not sure though as I like the way it is currently hidden until you click the Set button.
Please don't think I'm expecting you to write the code for these todo's, it's just a list of things I'd like to get added. I would prefer to try myself, and when I get stuckI'd like some help if that's ok. I would definitely like some help with the Roundline meter though! I can't seem to get it to work! I've tried to use the MeasureName=mCounterTimer but it just stays green when the timer starts.
EDIT: One thing I'm curious about though, why is the skin set to Update=50? Is there a need for the high update rate?

Re: Simple countdown timer
Ok, done. Have added a MaxVal variable, which keeps track of the max value of the measure used into the MeasureName option of the [RoundBarFore] roundline meter. I changed this measure from the initial MeasureName=mCounterTimer to MeasureName=mTimer2. The code I posting below definitely is not the final code, it can and has to be improved, but see if the Roundline meter(s) is/are working as expected, because there might be some other approaches as well (for instance to increas the green roundline, instead of decreasing it, as it is now).

Re: Simple countdown timer
Oh damn! I forgot about that max value setting! 
Thanks for the help. I'll have a look later tonight
So you can use a variable to point to another variable? I thought that, but in my last times skin I couldn't get it to work... Strange!

Re: Simple countdown timer
Ok, please let me know if it does work as expected.
Not sure what you mean by "variable to point to another variable", but I hope the code (and the Roundline meter) does work.

Re: Simple countdown timer
Oh, I see. Yes, it can be done, however one minor thing you have to take care about is the order of those variables. For instance this is working well:
Code: Select all
[Variables]
DefaultInitialValue=6000
MaxVal=#DefaultInitialValue#Code: Select all
[Variables]
MaxVal=#DefaultInitialValue#
DefaultInitialValue=6000-
