Is there a way to stop automatic scrolling?

Postby Mark » Wed Feb 23, 2011 1:58 am

So far I like Notion 3 a lot! So much that I ordered it yesterday. However, one thing that I'm finding quite annoying is automatic scrolling on playback. I want to be able to concentrate on the end of a page on playback without automatic scrolling flipping to the next page. Though the part at the end of a page can be selected, this isn't good enough because if I want to play an entire page, I don't want to have to manually select it. If I scroll to a page that I want to hear, I want to simply hit the space bar and have only that page play and not scroll to the next page--this is especially useful when multiple instruments take up an entire page.

Is there a shortcut to toggle automatic scrolling on and off?

You could switch to Continuous view for playback. I've found that a lot easier than Page view when I want to play back a certain section.

You still can't specify which measures play back, though. That's a feature that Notator had and would be great to have in Notion 3. Not only would it be handy to specify the starting and ending measures for playback, but also to be able to do the same for copying. And the starting and ending measures to paste to.

Those were among the many features which made Notator so useful. (I posted elsewhere on the forum about Notator, which never made it to the PC. Or rather, was complexified and reborn as Logic.)

Thanks for the replies.

Maybe the next update will have an option to stop scrolling.

Thank you jonknowles8 for the suggestion to use 'Continuous' view--it does help.
