here is my version of a Stopwatch.
not to much text controls, but there is no need for it.
the sfx 7Zip file
press space to start or split, or leftclick on the gui
press enter or backspace to reset, or rightclick on the gui
press F4 to view the log file
Some Pictures:

First of all, it doesn't work on AHK_L (its working fine on regular AHK)

Personally i don't like the button position i prefer it to be on bottom, moreover the button is too small. The button icon looks different from original screenshot, this is how it looks on my laptop:



The font looks smoothed because i use gdi++ (a font smoothing apps)

I think it would be easier to control the stopwatch by clicking the GUI (as an alternative to button). Start the stopwatch by clicking & stop it by double clicking/right clicking.

Maybe your OS doesn't have the font "webdings"
can you check that?

Updated:
Added leftclick on GUI to start-split the timer
Rightclick to stop-reset the timer

Yes it's installed. Script works on AHK_L now.
I set my visual style to windows XP (default) and here's the result(GDI++ OFF, no smoothing):



It seems my previous visualstyle & most of my other vs (from deviantart) interfere with gui font settings. Did you use windows classic visualstyle on original screenshots?

[emmanuel d]

Did you use windows classic theme on original screenshots?

Yes i did
i am on xp sp3
classic theme

Which is the current version of the source?

The file extracted from the 7zip file does not match the code box in the first post.

[emmanuel d]

i have no idea what it was i removed

edit they should match now
