Hi<br />
<br />
myTime= getTimer()/1000<br />
<br />
it will return the elapsed since the SWF file started playing, I divided by 1000 as it returns in milliseconds <br />
<br />
can't be more simple &nbsp;than this :)<br />
<br />

agreed....thx....<br />

Now to complicate things a bit. I'm developing a slideshow where knowing the elapsed time will be required to pinpoint exactly where stuff is occuring so I can determine where the next stuff should occur. I have a 'Pause' button that will stop all the currently running tweens. How can I code this timer so it pauses too.<br />

The tweens are coded, not timeline-based.
