    Not on the timeline. I’ll add that eventually. The mouse cursor field in the edit toolbar shows both measure and clock time.

    can that also follow the cursor so i see the values live?

    It updates whenever you move the mouse along the timeline.

    I was just about to FR exactly the same thing. Having the hours minutes and seconds on the timeline would be very useful. It would give a fixed view.

    Currently if you are playing back anything the mouse cursor field will not show any information unless you move the mouse over the arrange area. If you are working in the mixer you cannot glance at the timeline to see where the cursor is using H:M:S. The mouse cursor field will be blank.

    Some additional ideas…

    a. The mouse cursor field updating in realtime to reflect the position of the cursor during playback in the same way the Play cursor field does.

    b. Maybe some sort of right click option to change the Play cursor field view to H:M:S. It already follows the cursor so this might be the most logical step.

    c. Creating a new H:M:S field. There is enough space next to the Segment field.

    d. Having a H:M:S option that would be fixed on the timeline would probably be the best option IMO.

    I’ve now added clock times to the timeline ruler. They are written above the bar numbers. Coming up in 1.83.
