Hi Jean,
There was already feature request for this. I am not sure if it is in
the bug tracker or not, but it should be done at some point.
You can do it already though. Use Script action in the animation menu
and do something like:
[ [ [$Application GetMainWindow] GetMainView ] GetCornerAnnotation ]
SetCornerText "timestep = $globalPVTime"
And make sure the visibility is on.
