Hello,

I would like to have a countdown in my MassageBox that indicates the remaining time until timeout.

The code just starts my calendar, so its not very important, just curiosity.

Code:
MsgBox, 292, Kalender?, Soll der Kalender gestartet werden?, 5

IfMsgBox Yes
   Run, C:\Program Files (x86)\Rainlendar2\Rainlendar2.exe, C:\Program Files (x86)\Rainlendar2.
else
ExitApp


Thanks
Marc

Code:
Secs := 20
SetTimer, CountDown, 1000
MsgBox, 1, System Shutdown in 20 seconds, Allow Auto Shutdown?, %Secs%
SetTimer, CountDown, Off

/*
IfMsgBox Ok
  Shutdown, 8
*/
 
   
Return


CountDown:
Secs -= 1
WinSetTitle, System Shutdown in,, System Shutdown in %Secs% seconds
Return


Smile

Although a massagebox sounds great, if you don't want to use the WinSetTitle method provided, you could use a simple GUI instead of the massagebox. In which case you would replace WinSetTitle with controlsettext.
