i believe i painted myself into a corner here... i have a NSPopUpButton with 3 items. 1 Hour, 2 Hours, 3 Hours. each item has respected tag numbers 1, 2 and 3. i'm attempting to print out time remaining but i can only get as far as displaying seconds remaining with this: NSLog(@"%.2d Seconds Remaining", (hoursSelected - second)); but i would like for the log to output @"%.2d Hours, %.2d Minutes and %2d Seconds Remaining"; i can't wrap my head around it, and i fear that my trying to be as if/else statementless as possible by using the tag numbers of the PopUp Menu is causing me problems.
