Time Field
The field labeled Time at the bottom of the Timecode Calculator shows the current timecode –
feet/frames display offset (also called the “local zero” offset). This is the value currently stored in the
Time register which can be accessed at the top of the Project View Screen. If it is desired to make
calculations without taking into account the Time register, or based on a different local zero offset,
simply enter the desired value in the Time field in the Timecode Calculator. This will not change the
value of the actual Time register, but it will remove that offset as a factor for the Timecode Calculator. If
the Timecode Calculator is closed and opened again, the Time value will default to show the setting of
the Time register again. For more information on using the Time register, see the entry labeled Time in
Chapter 5, The Project View Screen.
