A countdown timer for a Stream Deck dial

A countdown timer that lives on a Stream Deck dial, so the clock for a session of up to four hours is under your hand instead of on another screen.

Every key and both touchscreens running their own timer, on a Stream Deck +. The ring empties as the clock runs and the colour says which state it is in.

Runs on: Stream Deck
Needs: A Stream Deck for the key timer, a Stream Deck + or + XL for the dial. Mac or Windows, Stream Deck app 7.1 or newer.
Licence: MIT

What it does

Press the dial to start or pause, turn it to nudge by seconds, push it in and turn to nudge by minutes
One tap pauses, two taps reset, hold puts the clock right or loads the next preset
Several lengths in one preset, so 40, 10, 10 runs forty minutes then ten then ten with no gap
Shows the finish time rather than only the count, which is the useful number on a long timer
Keeps ringing until you press it, for the alarm you must not miss
Clears itself after a wait you set, for a timer on a page you walked away from
Timers survive flipping to another page or profile and back
Seven colour themes, a countdown ring or a progress bar, and a fade near the end
Anything up to twenty four hours

What it looks like

Running. The ring empties as the clock does.
Paused, and it says so with a glyph rather than a colour change.
Finished. It sits there until somebody presses it, or clears itself after a wait you set.
The same timer on an ordinary key, drawing its own clock inside the ring.

The show runs up to four hours, live. For a year the clock was a phone leaning against a monitor, and checking it meant looking away from the guest. A Stream Deck dial is already under your hand, so that is where the clock went.

I did not write it. I prompted it, the same way everything on this show gets made. It is open source and free.
