Hello!
Testing this feature, I was quite taken with the effect created by the variable changing every thousandth of a second, so I incorporated it into this week's demo.
HOW IT WORKS: SONAR
Demo: https://bit.ly/elhc352
Download: https://bit.ly/elhc352dl
(If anyone has any tips on how to reset these variables without completely exiting and reopening the course, I'd love to hear your suggestions. As above, the Slide.ElapsedTime variable seems to survive 'Restart Course' and can't be manually overridden.)
UPDATE: Using Daniel's elegant method (below) of passing the Slide.ElapsedTime variable to a custom variable - which can be reset - you can now replay my demo within the same window and reset the clock each time.

- YvonneHiman3 years agoCommunity MemberBrilliant use of the ElapsedTime built-in variables, and wonderful backend discussion which lead to your solution. Your work is certainly inspiring, and I strive to step closer to having your grasp of Storyline and troubleshooting!
- JodiSansone3 years agoCommunity MemberI liked your interpretation of the challenge! That rapid timer stressed me.
- Jonathan_Hill3 years agoSuper HeroThanks Jodi! I wanted to create something that used a timer, but which didn't use time against the learner. As you already know, I'm not a fan of timed activities 😀

- NickRussell3 years agoCommunity MemberVery ingenious. Still trying to figure out how this works. Many thanks for the sl file Jonathon.
