Automatically change label in a specific time

[eh.zamani]

Is there a way to change the text at a specific time
For example,the label displays a text from 8 to 9 am and shows another text at 9 to 10 am
Forgive me for my weak English
Thanks

Hi eh.zamani

Put this Code in the way you want it to be executed like ( On Show or On timer ).

sTime = tonumber(System.GetTime(TIME_FMT_HOUR));

if (sTime >=8 and sTime <= 9) then
 
Label.SetText("Label1","your text between 8 and 9")

elseif (sTime >= 9 and sTime <= 10) then

Label.SetText("Label1","your text between 9 and 10")

end

end

Thank you
Can I do this every day?
I mean for example, on Saturdays a specific text will be displayed on specific hours and on Sunday, and another text will be displayed at specific times

First you need to read the manual of AMS where you can find all of these codes easily and learn the basics of the program.
Second you should try to do it yourself and when you fail you can ask the question with your code and guys here are very generous for giving you solutions and teach you why your code didn't work and so you can learn.
This is the way i do my work, i try to figure it myself with the help of the manual ,or search for similar questions in the forum,and when i fail i post my problem with my Code to learn what is wrong with my code.

This is the Code that you need :

sTime = tonumber(System.GetTime(TIME_FMT_HOUR));
sDay = tonumber(System.GetDate(DATE_FMT_DAYOFWEEK));

if (sDay == 1) then -- number of the day in the week. the first day is sunday

    if (sTime >=8 and sTime <= 9) then
    
    Label.SetText("Label1","your text between 8 and 9")
    
        elseif (sTime >= 9 and sTime <= 10) then
        
        Label.SetText("Label1","your text between 9 and 10")
    
    end
    
end

I am a teacher and I spend all my time to studying on my work .I'm building a project for classroom. I do not have time to learn this program accurately.
In my country, in such cases, they will help each other without contributing or obligation to each other.
Thank u but you also do not care if you do not want to help.better than obligation

No one here is saying that we will not help, just saying you can get your result faster if you read the manual than asking since your questions are basics.
Any way we are here to help each other and learn from the experts.
If you needed more help just ask.
Its better to explain your project so guys here can give the best way to achieve your goal.

There's a plethora of forum examples dealing with Date/Time retrieval far too numerous to list. A quick forum search will turn up a bunch of stuff, together with quite a few plugins and DLLs developed by members over the years, that deal with this topic.

Sameer has pointed out the built-in AMS functions useful for your request. And these will certainly do the job. It's up to you to learn how to apply them. Personally speaking, I'd use pua Lua for something like this, instead. For which you can look into the following functions:

os.time()
os.clock()
os.difftime()
os.date()

[B]eg.[/B]
sReturn = os.date(); -- [I]returns date in xx/xx/xx format + time in 00:00:00 format[/I]
sReturn = os.date("%H:%M:%S"); [I]-- returns time in 00:00:00 format[/I]

Details required for understanding the aforementioned functions can be found via the documentation at:

http://lua-users.org/wiki/DateAndTime

http://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#pdf-os.time

http://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#pdf-os.date

http://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#pdf-os.difftime

https://www.lua.org/pil/22.1.html

Again, it's up to you to put in the time required to understand how to apply these functions. As Sameer has already alluded, further help with specific aspects of your code will be forthcoming, once you understand enough about the basics, to be able to create and upload an APZ example which demonstrates you're on track. But no-one here's going to build it for you.

Also, very useful for this kind of thing, look into the Lua Date & Time Library (zipped and attached below).

How on earth to you expect to successfully create and maintain a project, if you can't make time to study the basic precepts required for understanding the code? Are we to assume that you expect someone to build it for you??? Sameer's given you pointers for one approach. And above are pointers to get you started using another approach. But it's up to you to put in whatever time's required to understand the concepts and to begin bringing something to fruition.

... Thank u but you also do not care if you do not want to help.better than obligation

Are you kidding me! Sameer provided you with a code sample and offered some sage advice about how to best proceed. And your response is to throw it back in his face? On your very first thread, no less? Very uncool. You'd do well to demonstrate some grace when seeking help. Or don't ask in the first place.

In my country, in such cases, they will help each other without contributing or obligation to each other.

Well bully for you, man. Are they as equally ungracious as you? And just an FYI, most here in this community will freely give help, donating both time and expertise without obligation. We try however, not to make a point of virtue-signalling how wonderful we are.

And yes, we do ask that you make an effort to help yourself, first. But if looking for someone to do your 'homework' for you, then you're in the wrong place.

I am a teacher ...

Then act like one.

Thank you so much for help i will never forget this
But this is not my homework. My homework is learning science for better teaching in class.Science related to the classroom such as math, physics and chemistry
My project was almost complete and I did not get any help from anyone except that you helped. Of course, if I did not add this code to the project, there would be no problem either.
I will definitely try to learn the software well, but the help you gave me is helping you to the human or fellow, not doing the homework.
If the parents of my students in need my help about anything related to the classroom, I will help them without any beholden or obligated, and I will not tell them to go and learn yourself.
I'm listening to you, although i do not need to learn this software, I will learn it.and please you also listen to me, which helping to a fellow or humanism is not doing his homework
Be in God's protection honorable professors
