    StopWatch.Split() or StopWatch.Stop() both return the elapsed time as an integer of milliseconds.  Take that number, divide by 1000 and convert to a string and you have your number of seconds.

Hi,

 

I don't think we have direct internal method to achieve this scenarios. I'm using below code to convert it.

 

function test12()
{
      var tempTime = aqConvert.StrToTime("00:25:54");
      Log.Message(convertTimetoSeconds(tempTime));
} 

function convertTimetoSeconds(timeObj)
{
      //Parameter should be a time object     
      var hours = aqDateTime.GetHours(timeObj);
      var minutes = aqDateTime.GetMinutes(timeObj);
      var seconds = aqDateTime.GetSeconds(timeObj);
      
      var totalMinues = minutes + (hours * 60);
      var totalseconds = seconds + (totalMinues * 60);
      
      return totalseconds;
      //if you want to return minutes then 
      //return totalMinues;
}
