The Show Text and Show Timeline menus are similar to the Timeline Edit menu
of the Sidepanel, but they are always accessible, not only in edit mode. Show
Text displays a textual representation of the current timeline, while Show
Timeline is a graphical representation. Otherwise, both menus are identical.
They offer several controls to view and edit the timeline.
Graphical Timeline Representation
In the Show Timeline submenu, the current timeline is visualized as a graph
over time. Keyframes are drawn as vertical bars, followed by a horizontal
line representing their duration. If a keyframe has a hold time, it is drawn

the hold time.
Triggers are drawn as red triangles facing up, while waits are down-facing
triangles. If multiple waits and/or triggers exist at the same timecode, they
are arranged on top of each other. Up to seven waits/triggers can be dis-

(“…”) is added on top to represent the waits/triggers that did not fit onto
