~~Title: Efl.Loop.time~~
====== Efl.Loop.time ======

===== Description =====

%%Retrieves the time at which the last loop stopped waiting for timeouts or events.%%

//Since 1.22//


{{page>:develop:api-include:efl:loop:property:time:description&nouser&nolink&nodate}}

===== Values =====

  * **timepoint** - %%Time in seconds%%
==== Getter ====

%%This gets the time that the main loop ceased waiting for timouts and/or events to come in or for signals or any other interrupt source. This should be considered a reference point for all time based activity that should calculate its timepoint from the return of ecore_loop_time_get(). Note that this time is meant to be used as relative to other times obtained on this run. If you need absolute time references, use a unix timestamp instead.%%

//Since 1.22//

==== Setter ====

%%You should never need/call this, unless you are implementing a custom tick source for an animator.%%

<note>
%%The time point must match whatever zero time you get from ecore_time_get() and %%[[:develop:api:efl:loop:property:time|Efl.Loop.time.get]]%%() (same 0 point). What this point is is undefined, so unless your source uses the same 0 time, then you may have to adjust and do some guessing.%%
