The timecode can be displayed in any of these formats:

dd:hh:mm:ss Days, hours, minutes, seconds
hh:mm:ss Hours, minutes, seconds
hh:mm:ss + hundredths Clock time to 1/100 s
hh:mm:ss + milliseconds Clock time to 1/1000 s
hh:mm:ss + samples Clock time plus a sample count
hh:mm:ss + frames Clock time plus a video frame count
samples A raw sample count
seconds Whole seconds
seconds + milliseconds Seconds to 1/1000 s
film frames Film frames
beats:bars Musical position, following project tempo
Hz Frequency

Choosing beats:bars makes the timecode musical rather than clock-based, so it follows Tempo and Time Signature.

It is present in every workspace.
