@sekhwal thanks for reaching out!

Unfortunately, time-scaled trees are currently not supported by Nextclade. We have been discussing about this, but there are no immediate plans to implement this.

If you need a time scaled tree, you will need to run the Nextstrain pipeline or TreeTime.

see here for example:
