    Useful plugin =) It would be nice to have more settings (thinking about shadow for easier reading) and use the "custom panel" of Overlay to make them easily available (instead of using shortcuts)

    Very easy to use. It is unclear how to change the time interval though - Is there any way to do this? I would like it to be in minutes, not seconds.
    1. Stephane Dallongeville
      You can change the time interval in the Sequence metadata (you can edit them from the inspector). But maybe you just speak about the representation itself (for instance having "0.1 mn" instead of "6 s") ?
