Hi everybody!

I need to press and keep presseing a button and then start a timer which counts from 00:00:00.000 to the time that button will be released. How to do it? I'm new to AppGameKit please help me.

Please note that If the user moves over or up the button, the Timer must stop.

Thanks

Something like this?:

+ Code Snippet

// Using a sprite as the button
button=CreateSprite(CreateImageColor(255,255,255,255))
setspritesize(button,100,100)
setspriteposition(button,200,200)

do

	if GetPointerPressed()
		if GetSpriteHitTest(button,getpointerx(),getpointery())
			time_start# = timer()
		endif
	endif

	if GetPointerState()
		if GetSpriteHitTest(button,getpointerx(),getpointery())
			time_end# = timer()
		endif
	endif
		
	Print("Timer: "+str(time_end#-time_start#,2))

    Sync()
loop

Aaargh! Ducks!
