Hello, so I am trying to make something in a tool that tells you for how long the left mouse button was pressed. The only idea I could come up with was to make a loop that activates on the Mouse.Button1Down event and counts in 0.1 seconds. Then I would break that loop and just use the information that I got in the Mouse.Button1Up part. However I can't break the loop. So, any better ways of doing this or just a way to break the loop when the left button goes up?

I'd look into using tick() for getting the time between click and .... "unclick" ... could also use os.time() but i don't think that is necessary due to you not needing accurate times
Would you want the count to display as well?
@ForeverBrown yeah that part isn't the problem i just got a variable named timer and then did a loop with wait(0.1) and timer = timer + 1
@spot6003 Do you mean like print? Anyways i just need the end resoult of how long the button was held down to use in the mouse.Button1Up part
Like as a display for the people to see
