Time in Captivate – Building a clock (Part 1)

Hello Captivaters !…

After playing with variables concerning the Time (see Part 1), I thought I would be able to build a clock easily !…

In fact that was not the case… I think that the problem is that we can run actions “on entered” or “on closed” a slide, but not during it… (I even tried the “while” option with advanced actions without any success… ).

So I had to cheat !!!…

Play

Do you have a better solution ?…

In my next attempt, I will try to do the same but with an additional javascript like “rotate.js”…

Happy Captivating !…

Commands in the while lloop will excute with on average a 1 second delay, besides the delay you already added.

I prefer using the Timer interaction to show time, although I use advanced/shared actions for calcuations.
