OpenGLContext.events.internaltime

Track a (potentially scaled) time with respect to an external time

Classes

class InternalTime( object ):

Track an internal time.

Internal times allow for fractional and absolute reporting of a current time with a given duration. The internal time potentially has a transformation applied to the incoming time values, which allows for time reversal, slowdown and speed up.

__init__( self , duration = 1.0 , repeating = 0 , multiplier = 1.0 , current = None , currentCount = None , discreteOnly = 0 )

Initialise (but don't start) the timer

duration: length in seconds (float) for a single cycle
repeating: if 1, will not stop when hit duration, but will repeat forever elif positive count > 1, will repeat X times duration
multiplier: the time multiplier 1.0 -> real-time, .1 -> slow-mo, -1.0 -> rewind
current: current internal time, lets you start at other than 0 seconds use resume to do the restarting
currentCount: the current count for repeats, lets you start partway through the set
discreteOnly: suppress the generation of fractional events...
