Default putting AA timers in main windows

is there a way to put AA timers (for instance, Dire Charm) into a main screen (like the actions window)? If so, what code would i be using.

I was going to attempt to embed Arista's timers, located here http://www.horizonsoutpost.com/eq/timer.asp, into one of the main windows a few weeks ago but RL intervened and I've not had the free time to mess with the XML.

I currently have the timers in the friends window but you have to bring it back up each time you zone.

i'm referring to the built in timers in the AA window. For triggered AAs. There is a built in timer there that tells you how long until your AA ability is ready to be triggered again. I was looking for the code to copy this timer into another window.

This is a good idea. I'd like to know if you can figure it out. I will look too.

As for the timers from horizons, the longer the timer, the bigger the file. That sucks and I try to avoid it. Smaller is better. I know you can make a 3 hour timer... but damn.

Another problem there is people have different amount of times for each AA skill. For example gather mana is X amount of time, but with more AA you can cut that time down. So the external timer would be inaccurate.
