A timer control generates tick events at set intervals. Timer is unlike the remainder of the user-interface items as it is not a visible control. Timer lets the user interface react, animate, or change without user interaction, such as having animations playing on the rollout, checking for certain conditions or events before continuing, displaying nag/splash screens, and so on.
