Once again smalltalk will be fine, as I do not believe there are any tiles to do this.
Thanks, Stephen

True, but this gives you a golden opportunity to build cams.
You can use a clock face (line in a circle) with a single rotating hand. At specific intervals along the circle place a trigger dot so that when the hand moves over it, a script is triggered. The tick rate of the script can now be varied by adjusting the dot(s) along the circle. The dot's position can be keyed to a variable, or the line reset its heading when it touches the dot. Many other variations are possible.

This is a great idea!
