DP5: make time formats stick

Post by baanes »

This has been bugging me for ages, and I'm wondering if there is a solution.
I do a lot of projects in which I do not want to use bars and beats as my main ruler, but instead real time or frames. However, when I change the time formats this information does not seem to get saved with the project, and so whenever I open it up again I have to reset the rulers to what I want. It's quite annoying. Do others have this problem, and is there a solution?

In the Time Formats window mini-menu, choose "Save Current Time Format to Project." (DP 5 User Guide, page 29)
