+ The Big Clock is a copy of the main primary transport clock, in its + own window, and is activated by checking Window + > Big Clock. +

- To show the current playhead position in a big, resizable window, activate - Window > Big Clock. The big clock is very useful - when working away from the screen but still wanting to see the playhead - position clearly (such as when working with a remote control device across - a room). The big clock will change its visual appearance to indicate when active - recording is taking place. Below on the left is a screenshot showing a fairly - large big clock window filling a good part of the display, and on the right, - the same clock during active recording. + The window is always on top of other windows (Ardour or others), + fully resizable and the clock will always fill the window, making it + very useful when working away from the screen but still wanting to + see the playhead position clearly (such as when working with a remote + control device across a room), or when showing the time on its own + screen.

+

+ Like most other clocks, it can be right-clicked to change its clock mode. It can also be edited to transport the playhead to a + specific point in time. The big clock will also change its visual + appearance to indicate when active recording is taking place, by + changing color. +
