Hi. When I have a timed job and I edit the time to make it rounded to the minute/hour On the Job always adds 1 second. For example, if I put in 30:00 (thirty minutes) it gets automatically changed to 30:01? It only happens sometimes, I havnt been able to gather any more criteria to repeat it. Why on earth is this happening?

    Joel,

    I have seen this once before, although haven't been able to track down a fix just yet. I believe the problem has to do with sub-second times adding together, along with some rounding, causing an extra second to appear when it should not. I am assuming the job in question is made up of more than one timing session?

    Hi Dan

    Thanks for your reply.

    Yes the ones that add the extra second always have 2 timing sessions.

    Hey

    I am still having this problem, at the moment if I start the timer, then stop it at say 29mins and want to round it to 30min I type over the 29 with 30, it then automatically adds 1 second on. I have to remove that timed event and re-add it manually, very annoying.

    Any fix coming soon?

    Joel,

    The issue has been reproducing the problem in order to come up with a fix. If you have a series of steps that cause the extra second to be added, please let us know.
