Counter Window Indepedance

[JSmith1234567]

Is it my imagination, or has the functionality of the counter window changed?

I seem to remember that you could have it set differently than the control-panel window?

When I try to change it in its's mini-menu from measures to frames, it changes both the control-panel and the counter window.

Am I doing something wrong?

It seems like they used to be independent?

Not sure what version of DP or OS you are using, but on OSX DP8.06 the counter (can be) different. It depends on which counter is set to "main". Here's mine:

As you can see, my main counter is Real Time and the control panel is Measures. Display of the other types is optional.

Hope this helps.
