Create Timecode Ranges

Time ranges and markers are defined regions drawn on the timeline. They can be labeled and they can get appearances assigned. A marker is created on the timeline of a track group and will be applied downward to all the tracks in the track group. A time range is created on the timeline of a track and it is track specific.

Time ranges and markers are tools used to better navigate and visualize the timecode show. They do not affect timecode playback or recording.

A new time range is created with the timecode show's total duration when a track is added. To set the duration of the timecode show, see Timecode settings.
