I wrote this:
Code:
Start:
TextWindow.WriteLine(".")
TextWindow.Clear()
Timer.Interval = 1000
TextWindow.WriteLine(" .")
TextWindow.Clear()
Timer.Interval = 1000
TextWindow.WriteLine("  .")
TextWindow.Clear()
Timer.Interval = 1000
Goto start


You can see what I'm trying to do.
The only problem is that it does it really fast. Even when I add more zero's.
Is there any other way to slow it down to about a second?


Edit : This is one of my first scripts, so I'm noob with this.

You've mistaken setting the Timer.Interval attribute for a delay. The timer probably has some kind of callback when the interval passes that you should use. You're also inserting a line into the box, then immediately removing it again.

You might also note what language this is.

I want it to clear everything, I just want to delay the clearing and the showing of the dots.

EDIT: I used small basic's. It's like a learner version of visual basics.

But what you're doing is:

1) Draw dots
2) Erase dots
3) Delay
4) Repeat

The dots will only be on the screen for a tiny fraction of a second. Steps 2 and 3 need to be swapped.

That alone won't help though, because you're not actually delaying. You're just repeatedly configuring some timer somewhere to fire at 1000ms intervals.

O.k. then thanks.

But, How do I delay the dots from showing up?

Look up how to actually use the timer instead of just changing its attributes.
