For me, the only use I have for the metronome is to give me the tempo to count the band in, so there is no need to know where the downbeat is - it's wherever I choose it to be.  Once the band is playing, the metronome is of no further use  .

Although I used the term 'flash', I didn't intend to imply I was using the mode that flashes around the page.  I have a single disc in the top LH corner.
