The app has a Tile and a Setup Screen.
Look in the screenshots folder when you want to see some previews.
Click on the Tile to start this screen.
Here you enter a name for the event you want to count down to and the date and time.
When the count down is reached the screen will show the name of the event in changing colors.
There is also a Test button on the screen showing what will be shown after the count down is reached.
You stop the flashing screen by a simple click on the screen.
Shows a message explaining it needs a setup or
it will show a count down in days, hours, minutes and seconds in 10 seconds steps.
From 120 seconds downwards it will show a big countdown in seconds.
On the Screen there are also some buttons with preconfigured / calculated days like New Year, Easter etc.
Some of them have a number at the end indicating the month / day.
This is because the date for mothers day is not calculated the same everywhere.
The same goes for fathers day.
Make sure to make the right selection ๐
You need the Tile to start the configuration screen and you can put the Tile anywhere on your Toon.
So you may always see the running count down or.........
since your Toon can have more pages with Tiles you can also put it on a page you do not see.
The count down will still work but you will not see the count down on the Tile.
May be nice when you want to surprise someone.
You can install this app manually without ToonStore :
- Open an sftp tool like WinScp/Mozilla on Windows to browse to your Toon.
- On your Toon go to /qmf/qml/apps and create a folder countDown.
- In that folder you put at least the qml files.
- Restart the GUI. ( On your Toon go to > Settings > TSC > Restart GUI )
- After that you can add a tile named 'Count Down'.
Thanks for reading and enjoy.
