How to remove myTimerAction?

[Vishav]

I am using this command in some function
myTimerAction = vizact.ontimer(8,dotappear)
and my function dotappear is:
def dotappear( ):
global point
point=viz.addText3D('o',pos=[1.24,0.78,0.4],scale =(0.01,0.01,0.01),color=(0,1,0))

and after 8 seconds dot appear on the screen.
After some if condition satisfies I want to remove/invisible point using:
if(trial_time>=15):
point.visible(viz.OFF)
But the point is not getting removed. Why?

The function registered with vizact.ontimer will get called every 8 seconds. So you could be adding the point multiple times. In that case removing the point will only remove the last one added. If you want the callback function called only once, use the vizact.ontimer2 (https://docs.worldviz.com/vizard/latest/#commands/vizact/ontimer2.htm) command instead.
