Hello everybody,
I’m using the FREE portal glide. How can I implement a timer/stopwatch component in a portal app?
Your help with this will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
There is a stopwatch component that you can use by enabling the preview feature in your team settings.
Also, @Jeff_Hager made an AI component stopwatch concept.

So, how can I copy the stopwatch time?
since the tables created are always empty in “his” timers!
You assign the column that you need to write to.
Thank you, I knew that. How do I “programmatically” refresh the stopwatch component and reset it without having to push the “reset” button? Do you know that?
That’s the last piece of the puzzle.
I really appreciate your help, I trust you know that.
You mean that you want it to reset automatically?
yes
Did you choose to use the native stopwatch or the ai component version?
native
You could use a real-time workflow as I explained how to do it in here:
In the action, after you correctly get a notification on load, change the action to a set column values, but keep the name.
Tell me if you need further help.
I checked this. I tried to tie the stopwatch to a column to write the elapsed time into it, but when I manually clear the elapsed time column, it did not reset the stopwatch until I go to another screen and go back (which forces re-rendering).
Bug report! 
SetColumnValues data action, or what did you do exactly?
No, I manually open the data view to delete it. I un-marked my comment as solution, it’s a mention of a bug, not a solution for your problem.
Here’s a record:
