Showing running time of timer

[jlorenz1 0]

This function works properly:

$begin = TimerStart()

$dif = TimerStop($begin)

MsgBox(4096,"Time Difference",$dif)

But is it possible to display the running time without stopping the timer?

I tried several things without success.

Thanks in advance!

$begin = TimerStart()
$dif = TimerStop($begin)
MsgBox(4096,"Time Difference",$dif)
$dif = TimerStop($begin)
MsgBox(4096,"Time Difference",$dif)
$dif = TimerStop($begin)
MsgBox(4096,"Time Difference",$dif)

unless you restart the timer, it keeps going as far as I have seen.

Oh yea, and this might show it better.

$begin = TimerStart()
ProgressOn("Timer", TimerStop($begin)) 
sleep(500)
For $x=1 To 10
ProgressSet( 50,"", TimerStop($begin)) 
sleep(500)
Next

And finally one showing two simultaneous timers running apx 1 sec apart

$begin = TimerStart()
sleep(1000)
$begin2 = TimerStart()
ProgressOn("Timer", "")
sleep(500)
For $x=1 To 10
ProgressSet( 50,TimerStop($begin),TimerStop($begin2))
sleep(500)
Next
