We need premium to use conditional interactions

[@saurabhbhardwaj6753]

Fantastic work Rishi! Keep going :)

Did you ever figure out why the seconds decremented by 2, rather than by 1?

[@rishikumar3144]

To be honest, nope. I think some lag issue coz of delay may be.

This was one of the best tutorials I came across as I was trying to figure out variables and conditions to set, and it helped me to build it very quickly. I also appreciated how well-paced your explanation was. It was not too fast nor too slow and helped me follow along better. One question that remains is whether you found a way to show two digits as part of the count down where 0 replaces the left digit. So for instance, right now the seconds shows 10 > 9 > 8... but I want it to show 10 > 09 > 08... where a zero will appear in front of the single digit like it does on digital clocks. What would you recommend for that because in the local variables, even if I place a zero, it will auto-delete it and there doesn't appear to be an obvious way to set it.
Also, how do I stop the timer after minutes reaches 0?

[@rishikumar3144]

-I haven't tried it but you can try and add a text layer with "0" value and make it absolute position in front of the timer.
-Now attach a boolean variable to the layer visibility and make it off by default
-In your variables condition add one more condition where it checks if the current timer is less than 10 then turn on the visibility of that "0" text layer.
- To stop timer just tweak the if condition to >=0
I hope this helps and doesn't confuse you 🙈

[@NouranElNakib--]

Thanks a lot for both of you, I had that exact question

[@knightlygnus]

@@rishikumar3144 How do you keep the single digit from sliding to the left over the 0?

[@javialexarias]

You need to have professional plan for use "conditional"

[@sumandhara445]

Or you can get a student account by purchasing any such course where figma is in the curriculum.

[@arturbelyaev6508]

I do everything like you, but from somewhere it appears after zero 1 with a minus (-1)

[@rishikumar3144]

If you can share the file I can have a look. Most probably it's just conditional issue with some maths to figure out

[@shreyanshdutt]

Hmmm, very nice tutorial. Simple and time saving #punintended

[@arvindc100]

Good

[@posting_meme_i_like_channel]

how to stop timer when minutes and seconds == 0? can we using AND operator? like combining condition

[@rishikumar3144]

Yeah you can try that, ‘and’ ‘or ‘ operators are available

[@arturbelyaev6508]

Рахмет бро!

[@KenethButad]

how you add tha viewport>?

[@ZoeSinner]

I'm trying to create a timer that counts up and I need the seconds to be styled as "01" not "1" any tips?

[@rishikumar3144]

Yup you need to have two separate text layers keep the first text layer constant 0 and on the second one attach variable. Hide the 0 layer once the counter layer crosses 9. Hope it helps and doesn’t confuse instead 🙈

[@DIYBusiness]

Bro I want to stop when it's hits 0:01.
I do your steps but is going to -1 ... How to stop

[@rishikumar3144]

Can you ping me your exact logic statement you are using in figma and requirement? If possible share the file

[@naga9384]

Thank your for this great tutorial Rishi 👌
