Getting Started
===============

- Right-click to access the menu. Several configuration options are available by selecting
  "Configure" from the menu.

- A safeguard is in place to prevent accidentally pressing the Split key multiple times. The
  sensitivity of this feature is adjustable (Menu -> Configure) and may be disabled.

- If the timer appears to be inaccurate in its default mode, you may switch to the fallback
  timing method (via Menu -> Configure). It is not recommended that you use this mode unless
  necessary, as it is susceptible to changes made to your system's clock. When the timer is
  running, you may check the current difference between default and fallback timing modes by
  checking the Menu -> About window. If the difference is large, you may want to switch to
  the fallback method. On my system, I observed a difference of only around 0.2 seconds after
  letting the timer run for over 80 hours.

- In the Run Editor (accessed via New/Edit) ...

	- Only the Segment Name is mandatory.
	- When inputting times directly from a video, you can directly enter the video
	  timestamps at each split, then after all times are entered, type the starting time
	  offset (the timestamp in the video when timing begins) in the "Old time offset"
	  box and click "Apply". The offset time will be subtracted from all times in the
	  "Old Time" column.

- About personal bests ...

	Two methods of tracking personal bests are available from the menu:

	- The default mode, "Fastest overall run", will record all split times from any run
	  that beats your previous best. In this mode, the personal best time recorded for
	  each segment will match the time in your best complete run.
	- Alternatively, "Fastest to each split" will keep track of your personal best time
	  reaching each split. In this mode, a personal best time for any given segment will
	  be the fastest you have ever gotten that far in the run.

	- Pressing Reset (R) will reset the timer without updating your personal bests. This
	  can be used even at the end of a run while the final time is displayed.

	- If personal best times are updated by mistake (for example, if you held down the
	  split hotkey, or just pressed it too many times) you can use Reload from the menu
	  to restore saved data from the time file.

- At the end of a run before resetting the timer, you can manually save the splits by using
  "Set this run as old" from the menu (not available if segments were skipped). This may be
  useful if you want to keep a run's splits while using the "Fastest to each split" personal
  best tracking mode, or want to keep a run to compare against even if it is not your best.

- Use "Start Delay" from the configure window to set a delayed start time. The delay can be
  precise to milliseconds.

- Global hotkeys may be configured for all timer functions (Menu -> Configure). This
  allows you to use timer functions without the timer being "in focus" in Windows.

- If you wish to see more information than is displayed in the "detailed" display mode, you
  may pop up an extra "advanced detail" window that can display additional information. The
  information displayed in this window can be configured by right-clicking the window*, and
  the number of segments displayed can be configured in the same manner as the detailed mode.
  This window will only display when segment data has been loaded or created.
   *note - if you select to show segment times, the segment time (in square brackets)
    displayed under "Best [Seg]" will be the fastest recorded time for that segment (this
    is the "Best Seg" data in the Run Editor)

S		Stop

R		Reset (same as Stop, but does not save any new best times)

P		Pause, Resume

Space/Enter	Play/Resume, Split (or Pause if no run info is loaded)

Left/Right	Previous/Next segments

Up/Down		Increases/Decreases the number of segments displayed in the detailed display
		mode (may be between 2 and 40)
