moving the playhead

Postby bshoc » 06 January 2017, 23:33

hey guys, maybe I'm totally missing something. But if I want to play a song from a particular location, I have to go find the playhead and drag it to where I want to start play from. Is there not a way to just click where you want the playhead to be? I'm finding myself having to zoom in to make edits, then zoom back out to find the playhead instead of just being able to click where I want the playhead to be..

also, scrolling from left to right isn't working on my mouse. I have to go to the bottom and click on the actual scroll bar to scroll.

last question... are there any shortcut keys for zooming in and out?

You can use the red marker for that.

From the doc : "Use +/- on the numeric keyboard to zoom in/out." ;)

It would be really nice to be able to zoom in for more detail.
The current closest Zoom level is still too far out to get the control I really need.

I can use the cursor keys to set the Red/Green dots, but again the resolution of each step is fairly course, even when zoomed in as far as possible.

Am I missing any keyboard shortcuts to enable finer control or do we need to enter the start time manually?

The limit comes from the source code.
In source the code, the smallest possible duration between two time steps in TimeLine is 0,1 second.
This means if we zoom for instance 5 times more, there will be a gap of a half inch between two time steps.
