Repeat of value based on expression with time gap of 3 seconds to give animated look . Is this possible ?

Hi All ,

I want to repeat a value based on expression . But i want that value to be repeated with delay of 3 to 4 second . Is that possible ?

Let me explain with example
star animation.PNG

When a user navigates to sheet 5 from any other sheet , i want to repeat the star value [chr(9734] but with few second of delay to make it animated look .For Barbara we have count value is 2 and hence Rating has two stars . What is intended was when a user navigates to sheet 5 the second instance of star should come with delay of few seconds .

Hope i am able to explain requirement .

Thanks & Regards

Shekar

it's based on time(now())

Each Star is a different column, we are just making it visible based on the time factor, unfortunately we do not have milliseconds with now()

Here is the Process>>

when you Click on "Go to Main" >> Set a variable with current time

Then vstar1 sets rgb() after 1 second from recorded time

vstar2 sets rgb() after 2 second from recorded time

and vstar3 sets rgb() after 2 second from recorded time


Check the variables definition and the TextExpression for each expression

Do you mean, if rating is 2 then, 1st start should be there and 2nd star should come with delay and then 3rd with some delay?

Good Work, Here, if they have stars around 10 +. Then you mean to say we need to write 10+ Variables for that? Liked it
