The time is measured directly above the Cycle Region bar.A ringtone cannot be any longer than 40 seconds however in our own unscientific testing, roughly only the first 20 seconds of the ringtone is all that is heard. When you see your mouse pointer turn into an arrow pointing in opposite directions, drag the bar to the desired time length.
