Hi Peter, regarding show elapsed time on left and remaining on right, yes it works, BUT now that i have played with this area of ST3 i realized its another unnecessary dogs breakfast and could be so much more user friendly to setup and reduce the clutter in the settings.
I would not have CLOCK SETTINGS in preferences at all as it should be as simple as hit either clock window left or right and choose the apropriate setting ST3 remembers it and thats it, why have to go to settings,user interface, clock settings, then make a choice, But to complicate it more the right clock window is not the same so you have the easy way on right without all options and the complicated way on left with all options, it does not make sense.
Another question regarding left clock is you have QUEU END now i dont use queue and have disabled it, this setting is probably fine if using queue i have not tested it yet but it would be nice to have PLAYLIST END as well.
So the logic should be simple, both clock windows behave the same its the users choice to what they put on left or right clock windows, all clock options are available on both sides so you can choose any option combination you like on either side and it gets remembered .If Queue is not used this option gets dropped in the clock window if you use queue and playlists if you are using this setting it automatically changes the clock to whatever you are using.
NO NEED FOR LABORIOUS SEARCHES THROUGH SETTINGS, THE CLUTTERED SETTINGS BECOME LESS CLUTERED MUCH SIMPLER FOR END USER AND ALL IS HAPPY TO ROCK & ROLL.
BENEFITS
simple, fast,logical,easier to explain to users in manual almost unnecessary. etc etc
