The adjustment is working correctly. The only thing is that when it counts down, and i click in the countdown window it start countdown from the beginning and the end time is not the time i want.

It's not a big problem, but maybe in a next version this can be fixed.
Also is it possible to make a command that when i click a button on my Novation launchpad, the countdown starts.
I have been searching, but didn't find anyone.

Thanx again

You might use the "SHOW_COUNTDOWN" control-command to do so:

Code: Select all

SHOW_COUNTDOWN <time>[|<text>]
Shows a countdown window til the given time with a certain text.
time: the time (either HH:MM:SS or in MS) til the the countdown should be shown
text: the optional text to display with the countdown
Example:

Code: Select all

SHOW_COUNTDOWN 19:55:03|My Countdown

This behaviour is currently by design - as with any other StopWatch or CountDown being shown.
A Left-Click on the clock will Pause the CountDown.
A Right-Click will reset the CountDown and start again.
(as this might be handy in various situation)

I'll see, if I can add an option to supress this to disallow any user interaction.

Please also try the new v3.0.11.22.

The SHOW_COUNTDOWN command has been enhanced a bit.
It now allows you to specify the time in either HH:MM:SS, MM:SS or in milliseconds.

The MM:SS format can be used to countdown to the next MM:SS ocurrence.
The HH:MM:SS format can be used to countdown to the next HH:MM:SS ocurrence.
The milliseconds format can be used to directly countdown to that.
