2.5.8 Clocks on the Multi-View
There are 3 types of clocks on the Broadcast Pix Multi-View: an Analog Clock, a
Digital Clock and a Timer. All three options are floatable and resizable, as described
in the previous section and all three can be floated at the same time. The analog
clock provides a graphical analog clock with a seconds hand in both 12-hour and 24-
hour formats and allows for time-shifting and color settings. The digital clock provides
a green digital clock that updates every tenth of a second clock in both 12-hour
and 24-hour formats. The timer can set to either be a red stopwatch/count up clock or
a countdown clock (useful when timing out the end of your production).
