Hide text object after few seconds

[#1]

Hi,

I am having a table for exporting.

I will show that table after clicking on button.

I want to show some msg like "You are in Export Table" in some text object.

So if i add some condition, so that the text object will hide after two seconds from the time the button is clicked.

Is there any option to do this?

Like a Splash Screen, using text object.

Use now() to set var on first event and hide if now()>var+x sec

hi, get the time in seconds when you clicks on button using trigger in a variable, and then use that variable in text box,

add two or three seconds in it, and compare with second(now), if they are equal or greater, then hide it in conditional show..

try it, and let me know, if could not do, i will prepare a sample for you

Do be cautious using the now() function in a qvw Dashboard as it will sit there continuously consuming CPU, even if the user goes out to lunch for a few hours and leaves the Dashboard open.

You can use the calculation in a Var and remove it from the object if time is over and set it on first action.

That's a cunning suggestion, I like it.

Please note that Now() function won't work on AJAX client.

Now() will not work in Ajax. Then i cannot use that and also it takes most of the CPU time right, so i cannot use it in my application, because my tool size is some 252MB.

Any other way of implementing it without using Now()?

Does anyone meanwhile get a solution ?
I want give the User (Ajax) a Hint too... but after a few Seconds the Text Box should be closed.
