Timestamp styling

Control how frame timestamps are rendered so exported contact sheets stay informative and easy to scan.

Updated Apr 3, 2026

Timestamps should add context without clutter.

What it is

Timestamp controls in frame settings for show/hide behavior, precision, and optional background styling behind timestamp text.

Why it matters

  • Review and archive workflows often require precise timing.
  • High-density layouts need stronger contrast handling.
  • Timestamp format consistency improves cross-video comparison.

Best practices

  • Use milliseconds only when frame-level precision is required.
  • Add timestamp background when footage contrast is unpredictable.
  • Verify timestamp readability before canvas export.
