Timeline Viewer

The Timeline Viewer displays the playback status of Cues and Voices, with the horizontal axis representing time and the vertical axis representing various Cues or Players by their names or handles.
In addition, you can check for any errors and Voice limiting control that may have occurred in chronological order.
