Delay Value Reference

Delay values are used by Events and Page events and are specified by combining a text value with a selected unit in the adjacent drop-down list. The following tokens are defined. Invalid values will be displayed in red.

Token Meaning
Whole numbers Single numeric values represent an amount of the selected units, such as "4 ticks" or "10 seconds".
Fractional numbers Fractions can be specified as "1.5", "3/4" or even "1.5/4". Fractional values are allowed for all units except samples.
Random integer values Random whole numbers can be generated by using the minus symbol eg. "1-4" will produce a delay of one, two, three or four units. You can combine this with fractions too eg. "1-4/4" will give one, two, three or four quarters of a unit.
Random fractional values Random fractional numbers can be generated by using the tilde symbol eg. "1~4" will produce values such as "2.37". Actually it's more like "2.3738290918982089211" but you get the idea. You can combine this with fractions too eg. "1~4/4".
Space You can include spaces in the value where they make sense.
