+ <p>The ruler plays a crucial role in your interaction with the timeline. First, it represents a time
scale providing time measurements (in seconds) for overall orientation. Second, it constitutes the primary
surface on which you can move the playhead (and thus, change your position in time). To move your position,
click anywhere on the ruler. You can also <em>scrub</em> the timeline by clicking on the ruler and holding
down the mouse button while moving. See the section on <link xref="movearoundtimeline">scrubbing</link> for
more details.</p>
<p>The current playhead position is indicated by a red vertical line:</p>

+ <p>When zoomed in, frames are visually represented as alternating light and dark areas in the bottom
part of the ruler. Hovering the mouse cursor over the ruler in this state will reveal an information tooltip
with frame number. The amount of time the individual frames take up is based on the project framerate
settings.</p>
