Creating flashing pixels

Hello everybody,
Actually I am working on my first watch face project, see here:

I now want to create some pixels that flash, maybe in a one second sequence. Is there anybody that can give me an idea how to do this? Thank you very much for any support.

If you use one of these they will turn on for one second then off for one second. Just choose if you want them on for even seconds or odd seconds.

If =0 then the seconds are even
$(#Ds#%2)=0?0:100$

If =1 then the seconds are odd
$(#Ds#%2)=1?0:100$

Or if doing more than 2 you can light images in succession place:
$(#DWE#%10)>=0?100:0$ in opacity box
and change number before “?” mark from 0-9 or more.
Just make sure the Ds% number is one higher than the last on time.
Image 1 opacity: $(#Ds#%3)=0?100:0$
Image 2 opacity: $(#Ds#%3)=1?100:0$
Image 3 opacity: $(#Ds#%3)=2?100:0$

Yeah @schnied . Welcome . That is an accomplished Debut Face . Nice Idea Navigation lights on the Jet . Not seen that before . You will see the Hys on here bend over Backwards to help with something Unique. I think you have found your new Creative home . I suspect yo might be a Renegade but a lot of us have Dual Venues for our Creations . Looking forward to your publication . I have a feeling this Debut Face might Chart .
Sorry I put a Like on your Draft by Mistake .

Hello, I see you wanted to use that to mimic some strobe lights on airplane.
Use this for opacity and try to play with the numbers $#DWFSS#%6<1?100:0$
interval length 6 equals 1 second, 1 means 1/interval length
such lights are longer off than on.

btw. do you know what does the numbering FL and GW stand for?
Edit: meanwhile I found out, it is supposed to tell you the optimal Flight Level (hundreds of feet) of a Boeing 747 for the Gross Weight (tons?) of the aircraft at cruising speed of Mach 0.84

I cut it for you from a less warped image of the Sinn watch.
