Default Edit window jumps to top when switching between applications.

I recently updated to 11.3.2 HD on a Mac Pro 5,1.

Now, whenever I leave Pro Tools for another app, usually for Soundminer or Safari, when I click or command tab back to Pro Tools, the edit window jumps up to the top of the track window. It's as if you hit Page Up or Home every time.

As I am a sound effect editor constantly switching to Soundminer and back, this is driving me crazy, please help! Is this a preference?

Pro Tools HD 11.3.2 - Mac Pro 5,1 - 32 gigs of RAM - Avid Artist Mix and Control - Blackmagic Intensity Pro - Avid MBox Pro 3.

In your Preferences, go to the "Mixing" tab. Under "Controllers", you have to de-select "Edit Window Follows Bank Selection" and "Mix Window Follows Bank Selection". It's a new behavior and/or bug that I'm not fond of, but this is the temporary workaround.

Thanks for the tip! I've been having the same issue occuring when simply moving around the edit window. Very annoying!

Having a second monitor screen and leaving PT on one, and placing sound miner, Safari, etc on the other might make your life way easier After having 2 and 3 screens, 1 just doesn't cut it

Oh thank you! This has been such a pain for my workflow. I thought it was a Econ issue. I greatly appreciate it.
