Timer expression shifting position with count
I made a 2 min countdown timer but I’m having trouble with it’s position moving as the numbers change. Is there any way to lock down the position so it doesn’t move horizontally with every number change?
Can’t figure out how to embed an animated gif so here it is:

countspeed = -1;
clockStart = 120;function times(n){
if (n < 10) return "0" + n else return "" + n
}clockTime = clockStart +countspeed*(time - inPoint);
if (clockTime < 0){
minus = "-";
clockTime = -clockTime;
}else{
minus = "";
}t = Math.floor(clockTime);
h = Math.floor(t/3600);
min = Math.floor((t%3600)/60);
sec = Math.floor(t%60);
ms = clockTime.toFixed(3).substr(-3);
minus + times(min) + ":" + times(sec) -

Would it help if you set the text layer to left-justified instead of centered?
