Help formatting a DBL indicator

I have read through several other threads about how to convert my output (seconds) to HR:MIN:SEC by formatting the DBL indicator, but I seem to be doing something wrong for part of my program. My "Current Lap" display box shows the format I want, but my array will show the seconds format when I use the lap button. I have tried to format the array DBL the same as the Current Lap, although I am not given the same options in the properties menu. Any pointers?

 

I have attached my file so you can take a look at the program. I am altering this program for my personal use, it was found on another internet forum.

 

Thanks in advance for any specific help!

Did you select a numeric element within the array container, or the array container itself.

 

Be sure to select a numeric element.  Then you should be able to format it as time just fine.

I don't think I know what you mean exactly. I can right click, replace, array palette, and then choose from there if I need a different type of array. Although, I don't see the option to select a numeric element. 

 

Thanks for the help thus far!

Thank you much! I was trying to do the same, but from the block diagram, not the front panel.
