I am coding a task scheduler. One of the options allows the user to select a task to be performed every hour at X minutes (ie. 00:45, 01:45, 02:45... 23:45).
Since I don't want to clutter the UI, I would like to know a short way of expressing this.
Assuming the user wants the task to be performed every hour at 45, these are the ways I have thought about, but they all sound weird to me.
- Perform at 45 minutes (hourly)
- Perform every 1 hour at minute 45
- Perform at 00:45 (every hour)
- Perform at minute 45 (hourly)
Is there a better way to express this?
EDIT: Another way may be "Perform hourly at :45 mins"
Answer
For (00:45, 01:45, 02:45... 23:45) I would write:
Perform hourly, at 45 minutes past the hour.
where "the hour" refers to the top of the hour (:00).
