Opens the Stopwatch user interface. There are three different methods:

/stopwatch
/stopwatch time
/stopwatch action

You can also use /sw, /timer.

Arguments

time

Toggles the stopwatch to count down from the given time. Format: [[H:]M:]S

action

One of the following:

• clear - Stops the timer and resets to 0
• pause - Pauses the timer
• play - Starts the timer, counting direction is based upon start condition
• reset - Stops the timer and resets to 0
• stop - Stops the timer and resets to 0

Notes

• Without an argument, the stopwatch will start at 0 and count up.
• "/stopwatch 1:0:0 will make the stopwatch count down from an hour, /stopwatch 1:30 will make it count down from 1 minute, 30 seconds, and */stopwatch 30 will make it count down from 30 seconds."
• Time is converted automatically, so "/sw 1:342:6304" will result in 8 hours, 27 minutes, and 4 seconds.
• Does not start automatically (user must either click the "Play" button or include "/stopwatch play" or "/stopwatch [time] play" in the macro as well).
• The stopwatch was added in the Wrath of the Lich King content patch, right before the expansion.
