  • Go to Time Dialog: Time Format Question

I have my time ruler format set to show both M:B:T and H:M:S:F.  When I open the Go to dialog box (G) it appears that it will only support the M:B:T time format for entering time.  I have referred to help () and it just shows how to enter time in the M:B:T format.  
 
Am I missing something?  I feel like I should be able to enter whatever time format I need regardless of project time format so long as I format the time correctly.  (I wrestled with that sentence for a while, I hope it makes sense.)
 
If there isn't a solution, this may be a feature request.
 
Thanks!

If you'd like to enter H:M:S:F instead of M:B:T, choose Edit > Preferences. Select the Customization - Display category, and put a check mark next to the option entitled "Display All Times as SMPTE"
 
You will now be able to enter values in H:M:S:F instead of M:B:T.

Glad to help, Jeremy. Yeah, there are a lot of hidden gems in SONAR.
