I like the fact that we can now easily see the frame # in the clip and project monitors of Kdenlive, but can they be made optional? Perhaps have a check box in the "View" section of the menu bar saying something like "monitor frames" or "clip frames", or possibly have a check box when you right-click either clip or project monitor that says "Show clip frames" or "Show frames"? Possible have both? Reproducible: Always Expected Results: I'd say proposed results: (1) Right-click on clip or project monitor to open right-click-menu (sorry, I don't know the proper name for it). (2) have click-able check box to enable/disable showing the frames in that particular monitor. This would be monitor independent, mind you. So one could be enabled, while the other disabled. Running Kdenlive 15.08.0+git20150916.0302+15.10-0_amd64 on Kubuntu 15.10 x64 beta (downloaded packages from kubuntu-ci/unstable ppa), KDE Plasma 5.4.1.
Issue is still present in Kdenlive 15.11.80. This bug was originally posted as a suggestion, but I really feel it should be an choice for the user to turn the red frame # indicator on and off in the monitors.
The frame number can be turned off if you disable the "Monitor Info Overlay" option in Monitor menu. This also disables the overlay showing if you are on a marker or if you are a an in / out position. Is it ok for you or should I completely remove that frame numbering ? Not sure it is really needed...
Forgot to say it is currently affecting both monitors but I could change that..
I personally don't understand the usecase for the frame display when there is already a timecode/frame display+input just sitting below it. I would also like to at least be able to disable it without loosing the more important in/out position notification. But if there is no usecase for it, removing it would avoid the lava code anti-pattern, where code gets so hard like lava after some time and noone dares to remove it.
JB, my bad. I try not to make these bugs without seeing if the issue is my ignorance with the program. Not looking to consume your time with "how-to" bugs. :) That said, glad to know this is an option. However, like wegwerf said, this isn't really needed at all in the professional (or dare I say casual) film editing world. While it's great to have the feature if needed - as always, features are cool :) - I would suggest you have it disabled by default, and have users opt in to enabling it.
