HUDs
A heads-up display (HUD) is a semitransparent floating window with controls and displays

Sound Palette HUD
You can use the Sound Palette HUD to lift attributes from selections in the Timeline and
apply them to one or more clips (or regions of clips). For more information on the Sound
Palette HUD, see
The Lift and Stamp Tools and the Sound Palette .
Timecode HUD
The resizable Timecode HUD makes reading current timecode very easy, particularly from
a distance. You can also use the Timecode HUD to navigate in the Timeline or the File
Editor by dragging the displayed hours, minutes, seconds, or frames up or down. The
Timecode HUD displays timecode with subframe accuracy.
