Okay, @Peter_Kawa, and others, coming soon (ready in develop):

### BLL has a new build-in function: time

`time(format, timeMs?, timeSec?)`

This function will return the given time (from ms or seconds) in the requested format.  
Handy to convert (milli)seconds into timestamps!

(It took 11 days.)

Very usefull for the new feature coming to the [Advanced Virtual Devices](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-advanced-virtual-device-device-capabilities-app-with-unique-text-status-indicator/68198) from the [Device Capabilties app](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/).

### Reflection of values in AVDs

> Coming soon to the [Device Capabilities App](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.qluster-it.DeviceCapabilities/Device-Capabilities/): Reflection of Variables or Chronographs in AVDs! [image] You can now (well, when it’s published) select entities from other apps to be reflected as value of the AVD field! For example, let it reflect a [Better Logic Library](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/net.i-dev.betterlogic/Better-Logic-Library/) variable: [image] Or let it reflect a [Chronograph](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/nl.fellownet.chronograph/Chronograph/): [image] Here the Elapsed time is formatted with the BLL expression to fit the textfield with a nicely timestamp. You can also let a button reflect the Running (or removed) status…
