At the bottom of the main editing window, you can display either "Frames" or "Minutes:Seconds:Frames" (mm:ss:ff).

But in the timeline editor window, you can only show frames.

I would like to be able to show mm:ss:ff in the timeline display too.

I don't have a real feel for the number "10895."  Do you know that it's approximately three and a half minutes without doing any math?  It's actually 3 minutes, 27 seconds, and 14 frames.

It would be nice if I could show 03:27.14.

.

On a related note, the Main Window shows frames as 100ths of a second (00 to 99), but the Timeline Editor window shows 60ths of a second.  I should be able to at least have matching timecodes in the displays.

.

I'm used to a "period" being the delimiter between seconds and frames, rather than a colon, but I'm flexible on that.
