It works by making a timeout callback every 1/5 second. This is wasteful and inaccurate if you just want something to happen a fixed time in the future. You should directly call <A href="Fl.html#Fl.add_timeout"><TT> Fl::add_timeout()</TT></A> instead. <H3>Methods</H3> <UL> <LI><A href=#Fl_Timer.Fl_Timer>Fl_Timer</A></LI> <LI><A href=#Fl_Timer.~Fl_Timer>~Fl_Timer</A></LI> <LI><A href=#Fl_Timer.direction>direction</A></LI> <LI><A href=#Fl_Timer.suspended>suspended</A></LI> <LI><A href=#Fl_Timer.value>value</A></LI> </UL> <H4><A name=Fl_Timer.Fl_Timer>Fl_Timer::Fl_Timer(uchar type, int x, int y, int w, int h, const char *label = 0)</A></H4> Creates a new <TT>Fl_Timer</TT> widget using the given type, position, size, and label string. The <TT>type</TT> parameter can be any of the following symbolic constants: <UL> <LI><TT>FL_NORMAL_TIMER</TT> - The timer just does the callback and displays the string "Timer" in the widget. </LI> <LI><TT>FL_VALUE_TIMER</TT> - The timer does the callback and displays the current timer value in the widget. </LI> <LI><TT>FL_HIDDEN_TIMER</TT> - The timer just does the callback and does not display anything. </LI> </UL> <H4><A name=Fl_Timer.~Fl_Timer>virtual Fl_Timer::~Fl_Timer()</A></H4> Destroys the timer and removes the timeout. <H4><A name=Fl_Timer.direction>char direction() const <BR> void direction(char d)</A></H4> Gets or sets the direction of the timer. If the direction is zero then the timer will count up, otherwise it will count down from the initial <TT>value()</TT>. <H4><A name=Fl_Timer.suspended>char suspended() const <BR> void suspended(char d)</A></H4> Gets or sets whether the timer is suspended. <H4><A name=Fl_Timer.value>float value() const <BR> void value(float)</A></H4> Gets or sets the current timer value. </BODY></HTML>
