clock

[felipegm]

Hi

Is it possible to make flash mx to take the time on the system and make it run a determined frame.
I want to make a clock that shows the real time. How can I do it?

Thanks

Hi,
You can find a tute for telling and displaying the time in MX here (http://www.actionscript.org/tutorials/beginner/Flash_MX_Date_Time/index.shtml)
From that yopu should be able to work out the answer to the rest of your Q.

Cheers

wrong forum - this needs to be in a flash topic, not SOTW.

[SteveD]

Yeah, I agree, I only noticed the forum after answering the Q, went staright to "view new threads" and didn't check, what happens, do the moderators move it ?

oooooooppps !! Sorry Jubba, I hadn't looked at the tutes here, I just knew that one existed from some time ago - no offense meant.
Next time I recommend tutes I will check this site first. I have done a couple of tutes here and find them amazingly easy to follow.
