Suspend Auto-Scroll When Editing
If you do not want the Project window display to change when editing during playback, activate Suspend Auto-Scroll when Editing.
Suspend Auto-Scroll when Editing is available as an option in the Select Auto-Scroll Settings pop-up menu to the right of the Auto-Scroll button.
If this option is activated, auto-scrolling is suspended as soon as you click anywhere in the event display during playback, until playback stops or until you click Auto-Scroll again.
As a visual feedback, the Auto-Scroll button changes its color.
