This is the first request I've ever heard for an up and down timer.  If there is a need, I guess most just use TMR and TMRDOWN.

That surprises me. Some of our processes are critical and we need to know how long it has been on and how long the process has stopped. Having just one timer, or in this case a counter counting up and down using one display works for us. I need to know how long a process has been stopped to decide what to do next.
So I ended up doing the attached. Just a mock up using the simulator so far.
