How can I use timespan to count down minutes?-CodePudding

private void TimeToDownload(Label LabelToDisplay)
{
   int _elapsedSeconds = 10;

   System.Windows.Forms.Timer _timer = new System.Windows.Forms.Timer
   {
       Interval = 1000,
       Enabled = true
   };
   _timer.Tick  = (sender, args) =>
   {
       _elapsedSeconds--;
       TimeSpan time = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(_elapsedSeconds);
       LabelToDisplay.Text = time.ToString(@"mm\:ss");
   };
}

The minutes are counting down as seconds.

09:00 then 08.00 then 07.00 the minutes count down as seconds each second one minute is down instead counting the minutes down with the seconds.

CodePudding user response：

Your TimeSpan is created FromMinutes, while it should be FromSeconds

TimeSpan.FromSeconds(_elapsedSeconds);
