Feature Request: Timer Component

Hi

I love the RadZen UI and I think a timer component would add another level to the system. I know it's possible to do a timer in c# but a built in component would just make it so much easier.

Please keep up the good work this product is awesome.

Hi @Penfold,

At the moment we offer only UI components in Radzen toolbox and indeed to create a timer is very easy - check this thread for reference:

Finally took a crack at this and thought I might share my code. This simply sets a Property called MyProperty to the current time every second and then runs the StateHasChanged(). To do this you just need to edit your Page's razor.cs file and add the code:

namespace <yourprojectname>.Pages
{
    public partial class <PageName>Component
    {
        System.Timers.Timer timer = new System.Timers.Timer();

        protected override void OnInitialized()
        {
            base.OnInitialized();

            timer.Interval = 1000; // 1 second in milliseconds
            timer.Elapsed += OnTimedEvent;
            timer.AutoReset = true;
            timer.Enabled = true;

        }

        private void OnTimedEvent(Object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
        {
            InvokeAsync(() =>
            {
                MyProperty = DateTime.Now.ToString();
                StateHasChanged();
            });
        }
    }
}
