OK!  Thanks.  That' s simple enough.  What made it more complicted than
it ought to is the French translation which is 'Entrée' and 'descente'.
'Entrée' could be OK, put 'descente' is 'descent' in English and I
related those buttons to some other function that has nothing to do
with enbling the range.  One of those Advanced (for me) functions that
I'm Not Aware Of. :)

It'd be convenient to have the normal time.  As it is now the range
must be dragged and then released to update the time marker next to
the two buttons.  Maybe those time markers could be also updated as the
range markers are dragged.  That would make it an easier, transparent
UI change by not having to offer time marker choices.
