Adjusting the Bar Ruler Display
You can switch the Bar ruler between four display modes:
 Time: Displays a SMPTE time ruler, divided into hours, minutes, seconds, and frames.
 Bar: Displays a Bar ruler, divided into bars, beats, divisions, and ticks. Dependent on
the zoom settings (see “ Zooming ” on page 68), the bars are shown at the top edge in
units of 1, 4, 8, or 16. Time signature changes are also shown here. In the bottom
third, there is a vertical line for each bar. The shorter lines represent one beat, but are
not always visible (depending on the zoom setting).
