A List Centered on Call
Click a call time cell and the wheel opens: a scrolling list that starts centered on Call, the general crew call. Earlier times sit above it and later times below. Each line shows the offset and the clock time together, as in Call-30 | 6:30 AM, so there is no guessing whether a time is AM or PM.
How to Use the Wheel
The same list opens from crew, cast and background call time cells:
- Click the call time cell to open the list
- Scroll up for earlier calls, down for later ones. The steps are 5 minutes, up to 10 hours either side
- Click a line to set the time
- On Call (O/C), No Call (N/C) and Clear sit right under Call
- Or type in the box at the top, for example 8am, 6:30A or call+15, and press Enter
Tip: Most crew calls land within an hour or two of the general call, so the time you want is usually a short scroll from Call.

The Settings in Globals
Globals has a Call Time Wheel block under Unit Settings: an increment of 5 min (Indie Standard) or 6 min (DGA Standard), a list of items you can reorder, hide or star, and custom items with a Label and Value.
Important: These settings are saved but the crew call time list does not read them yet. The list always steps in 5 minutes and shows the standard items.
