The function that my timer carries out:
1) changes the text of buttonX4 from "Copy To Clipboard" to "Your Bio Has Been Copied"
2) after 2 seconds (timer steps in) it changes from "Your Bio Has Been Copied" to "Copy To Clipboard"
Problem: After it completes step 2 when i click the button again the timer doesnt function. It only shows "Your Bio Has Been Copied" for a fraction of a second
How do i make it so that in my code the timer gets reset so when i click the button again it carries out steps 1 and 2 again.
MY CODE
public void buttonX4_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
buttonX4.Text = "Your Bio Has Been Copied";
timer1.Start();
}
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
l_time = new System.Timers.Timer(2000);
l_time.AutoReset = false;
l_time.Start();
//System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(5000);
// l_time == Elapsed;
l_time.Elapsed += new ElapsedEventHandler(OnTimedEvent);
}
public void OnTimedEvent(object source, ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
//buttonX4.Text = "Copy To Clipboard";
if (buttonX4.InvokeRequired)
{
this.Invoke((MethodInvoker)delegate()
{
buttonX4.Text = "Copy To Clipboard";
});
}
l_time.Stop();
}
