Countdown timer in motion

Is there an easy way of doing this?

I remember doing something similar in After Effects quite a while ago, and I'd like to get a 10 mintute countdown to a presentation, all created in Motion. I'm hoping there is a simple effect or behaviour that can be added to some text to achieve this?!

The clock will be written as 10:00:00, and should count down in real time to 00:00:00, is possible!

Many thanks in advance,

Dave

Easier to do in FCP where you can use the TimeCode
Generator filter, then run it backwards... or TCGen
II
a plugin I wrote to allow you to change the
font, separator, etc...

Great, thanks Patrick. Sorry for the novice query, but do I just drop that into the plug ins folder for FCP? If I open it, it says wrong file type so I'm unsure how to use it!


thanks again
