+These macros are a good example for keeping the programming core and the menu in sync - this is explained in [[macros:action_and_menus]].
+  * ''ActionScript.SetProperty.Boolean("Timecode.Enabled", true)'' sets the variable 'Timecode.Enabled', which in fact enables the timer AND sets the menu if the timecode menu is open.
+  * ''Timecode.SetEnabled(Timecode.Enabled)'' sets the timecode timer to the value the variable 'Timecode.Enabled' is set to.
+  * ''ActionScript.SetProperty.Boolean("Timecode.Enabled", !Timecode.Enabled)'' is explained in [[:macros:control_structures]]: it is a simple toggle logic which sets the variable 'Timecode.Enabled' to its counterpart: if it is enabled, it will be disabled - and vice versa.
