P: Ability to reassign Timeline Playback Shortcut

When working with video timeline  I am painting and panning the canvas with the space bar key. But when I press spacebar and not pan it starts to play the timeline and the play head moves to the next layer which is very annoying. This problem was reported a long time ago but the problem is not fixed yet. There whould be a way to disable the shortcut key for the play button in the video timeline. Else the video time line is a feature of no use for animation artists trying to create animations in Photoshop. Just cant work with this. Please fix the problem. Its been really long since this bug got fixed.

      I'm surprised you don't know the seriousness of this problem.

        Patrick, in my experience, a short press does start play/stop, while a long press does give you the pan. Did you also try the Z key as an alternative?

            PLEASE FIX THIS ADOBE! WHY ARE WE PAYING YOU SO MUCH MONEY FOR SUCH A MEDIOCRE PRODUCT AND ROCK BOTTOM SERVICE??? YOU CAN LITERALLY RE-BIND ANY OTHER KEY TO ANY OTHER ACTION, WHY IS THIS ONE SO DIFFICULT? If you can't, can we at least get an explanation that is not "we don't care you'll pay us anyway".

              Another animator chiming in here. The spacebar to play and pause gets in the way ALL THE TIME. This needs to be a re-assignable short cut. PLEASE ADOBE

                    This has been really bothersome for me as well. I'm used to doing quick pans with the spacebar held down and this happens to me once every 5 minutes on average when working on animations. This is really frustrating, please fix this. DX
