I want to get a loop counter up on the screen to count how many times a loop has looped.
I started with this which works fine get_bpm & param_1_x & param_multiply 240000 & param_cast "ms", this returns the time in milliseconds for, in this case, a 4 beat loop.
So how do I now get that in to something like this that cycles the 'LoopCount' variable in time with the loop -
loop 4 ? repeat_start_instant 'LoopCounter' [THE ABOVE] & cycle 'LoopCount' 16 : repeat_stop 'LoopCounter' & set 'LoopCount' 0
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if this can be done, will take a look.. but in the meantime the real question is ..
- Do you want to know how many times the loop is active so that you know when to disable it. ?
or
- Do you want some procedure/action to set a loop and also set how many times it will be repeated, at the time you trigger the loop ? In this case, the native "Loop Out" Effect may be useful.

It's purely just to indicate how many times it's looped. So if you exit the loop you can see when to do it in time with the beats/bars.
