Set something to happen when the Timer fires.
Starts the Timer.
Stops the Timer.
If Count Up is false, returns remaining time from the Timer's interval in seconds.
If Count Up is true, returns elapsed time from the Timer's interval in seconds.
If Count Up is false, returns remaining time from the Timer's interval in milliseconds.
If Count Up is true, returns elapsed time from the Timer's interval in milliseconds.
Set interval of Timer in milliseconds.
Returns interval of Timer in milliseconds.
Set whether Count Up is enabled for this Timer.
Returns true or false value for whether Count Up is enabled for this Timer.
If Loops = true, the timer will reset itself after it fires. If your interval is 10 seconds, the Timer will fire every 10 seconds.
If Loops = false, the timer will finish its current interval if it is in the middle of one, and will no longer fire. If your interval is 10s, the timer will finish its current 10 second interval, fire, and then stop.

Inside the "when button click" block, add a condition: if the timer is running, pause the stopwatch; if it's not, start it.
Set the timer interval to 1 second/1000 Milliseconds and enable looping so it keeps running.
Add a label to display the elapsed time in seconds.
Use the "when timer fires" block to increase the variable by 1 every second and update the label with the new value.
Start by creating a variable and set its value to 5000 to count five minutes.
