For years I have used KIWI's alarm clock application. Unfortunately it recently malfunctioned and I seem unable to locate the original source for that nice little (and useful) APP. If KIWI or someone else can point me to a link where I can re-download it, I would be most grateful. Thanks, David |

Thats a lot of years David. As I recall it the app was using MS Visual Basic which I'd hacked. I'll have a look around and post it but I run linux now so I can't really test it. Can you recall what the exact name was so I can search for it? Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-11-15 23:00:26

Heres my old files. I now just use a bit of acsil code to give me a countdown in each relevant SC window. If you use it the bits that refer to up and down can be removed or just set to zero. /*----------------------------------------------------------------------*/
// Output to text ... following active tool int Hour, Minute, Second; int& timesave = sc.PersistVars->i11; SCDateTime BarTime = sc.SecondsPerBar; SCString StrRemainingTime; SCDateTime RemainingTime = barTime[as].GetTime() + sc.SecondsPerBar - sc.CurrentSystemDateTime.GetTime(); if(sc.IsReplayRunning()) RemainingTime = barTime[as].GetTime() + sc.SecondsPerBar - sc.LatestDateTimeForLastBar.GetTime(); if(RemainingTime != timesave) { timesave=RemainingTime; if(sc.CurrentlySelectedDrawingTool == 2 && sc.CurrentlySelectedDrawingToolState) { up = Up[sc.ActiveToolIndex]; dn = Dn[sc.ActiveToolIndex]; } up = (up > 99) ? 99.0 : up; dn = (dn > 99) ? 99.0 : dn; s_UseTool Tool; Tool.Clear(); // reset tool structure for our next use float High, Low; sc.GetMainGraphVisibleHighAndLow(High,Low); if (C[sc.IndexOfLastVisibleBar] < ((High+Low)/2)) if (sc.ScaleRangeType == SCALE_AUTO) Tool.BeginValue = High-(0.1 * (High-Low)); else Tool.BeginValue = sc.ScaleRangeTop - 8; else if (sc.ScaleRangeType == SCALE_AUTO) Tool.BeginValue = Low+(0.1 * (High-Low)); else Tool.BeginValue = sc.ScaleRangeBottom + 8; Tool.BeginDateTime = barTime[sc.IndexOfLastVisibleBar - shiftleft.IntValue]; Tool.ChartNumber = sc.ChartNumber; Tool.Tool = TOOL_TEXT; Tool.LineWidth = 1; Tool.FontSize = fontsize.GetInt(); Tool.Region = 0; Tool.AddMethod = UTAM_ADD_OR_ADJUST; Tool.Color = RGB(28,28,28); char output[40] = ""; if(RemainingTime <= 0 && RemainingTime >= -BarTime) { RemainingTime = RemainingTime+sc.SecondsPerBar; Tool.Color = RGB(255,0,0); } else if(RemainingTime > BarTime || RemainingTime < -BarTime) RemainingTime = 0; Hour = (int) (RemainingTime / 3600); Minute = ((int) (RemainingTime / 60)) - (Hour * 60); Second = RemainingTime - (Hour * 3600)-(Minute * 60); if(Second >= 10) { StrRemainingTime.Format(" %d:%d %2.0f %2.0f", Minute, Second, up, dn); } else { StrRemainingTime.Format(" %d:0%d %2.0f %2.0f", Minute, Second, up, dn); if(Minute == 0) { if((Second == 8 || Second == 6 || Second == 4 || Second == 2 || Second == 0)) Tool.Color = RGB(0,0,255); else Tool.Color = RGB(255,0,255); } } Tool.Text = StrRemainingTime; Tool.LineNumber = 164; sc.UseTool(Tool); } |

Hi KIWI, Thanks for replying, and yes it was a long time ago! I vaguely seem to recall you referring it as: your hack of "iceman's" clock... but I cannot be sure. Thanks, David |
