Why change \"Scroll track into view\" in 7.2?
Ok so this is a real PITA. I just paid to have my productivity reduced. Why change the "scroll track into view" and put it into a pop up menu thereby making what was a single right click step into now what is two steps. Worst yet it's placed next to make track inactive. Make that selection by mistake and it's sure to piss many off. At the very least this should be a optional pref. I can't be the only one using this feature constantly with a control surface. Anyone figure how to get this back please let me know.

yeah, you're right. Wondering the same thing... I was finally jazzed that that feature was available, and now it's gone again (unless you right-click on the track etc.) -cd |

I believe it's because of the full implimentation of all right-click functions throughout the application.

If you <control><command> click on a track name in the mix window it will scroll to track in the edit window. Hopefully this will go halfway to solving your problem. Annoyingly, it doesn't seem to work if you do it in the edit window though.

With all the other improvements in 7.2 (great) this one still puts me on the rope about going back to 7.1. It slows my work flow tremendously.

I'm hating this new behavior too. Please switch this back! The new functionality is good, but not at the expense of previous features. If it ain't broke......

There are a fair amount of "pseudo-right-click" functions (actually "control-click") in legacy Pro Tools that collide with trying to implement right-click. This was one of them. At the risk of pissing you off further, the other one we'll get flack for is using "right click" to scrub when you have the selector tool selected - there was no way to keep that and still have the new right-click features on regions (have you tried that yet?). But part of the thinking (or lack of, depending on your point of view <g>) was that we were trying to support users who didn't have right-click mice. (FWIW, if you're on a control surface, control+the select button of the channel will still perform as it used to) I think the only future change that would make sense would be to prohibit control-click from bringing up the right-click menu on the track name. However, we would keep the actual right-click the way it is (and perhaps we could move the "scroll to track" choice into the first menu position). Sorry about that, folks. There were so many things in this release, something was bound to fall through the cracks. We'll have to let this sit for a while, though. Danny Caccavo Product Manager Digidesign |

It's time for a vote! I vote for a preference button so that everybody can be happy. "Right Click Legacy Behavior on Track Buttons" or something.
Digi, great work. But come on. You're messing with the workflow on this one. Two steps forward and one step back is great if you're dancing, it's just not so hot in DAW software. S.
