Hi,

this might be something really stupid..... but my timeline is not showing frames or Secs. I know you can command (on MAC) click to switch between frames or timecode. When I am on frame mode, it properly displays the frames on the timeline. But when I am on timecode mode it displays the timeline in 01:00f, 02:00f, when it is all zoomed out, it shows 01f, 02f, 03f. I have attached pictures as well. I want the timeline to display regular time code.

Once I created a new composition, and set frame rate to 25 a regular timeline showed up! Thank you for solving this with me. I guess I just have to wait for the next update when the fix the bug?

Change the frame rate to 25 just to check. does it look fine? if so, then it's the bug. 00:01f is just 01s so that's not too bad in regards to timeline orientation. The issue really starts when you are zoomed further in and start seeing the time ruler in strange intervals like 12:10 12:35 and so on. Nothing to do about this bug. It happens on 30fps and 29.97fps btw

hold on. show a full screenshot of your Ae interface. I am not sure you are experiencing the same bug.
