<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>A Timer can be used to trigger an action either once, or repeatedly at a given interval.</p>
<p>Here is a Timer that shows the current date and time, and updates the text every 500 milliseconds. It uses the JavaScript <tt>Date</tt> object to access the current time.</p>
<pre class="qml"> import QtQuick 1.0

 <span class="type"><a href="qml-item.html">Item</a></span> {
     <span class="type">Timer</span> {
         <span class="name">interval</span>: <span class="number">500</span>; <span class="name">running</span>: <span class="number">true</span>; <span class="name">repeat</span>: <span class="number">true</span>
         <span class="name">onTriggered</span>: <span class="name">time</span>.<span class="name">text</span> <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="name">Date</span>().<span class="name">toString</span>()
     }

     <span class="type"><a href="qml-text.html">Text</a></span> { <span class="name">id</span>: <span class="name">time</span> }
 }</pre>
<p>The Timer element is synchronized with the animation timer. Since the animation timer is usually set to 60fps, the resolution of Timer will be at best 16ms.</p>
<p>If the Timer is running and one of its properties is changed, the elapsed time will be reset. For example, if a Timer with interval of 1000ms has its <i>repeat</i> property changed 500ms after starting, the elapsed time will be reset to 0, and the Timer will be triggered 1000ms later.</p>
