Please add the following settings
1. Ability to disable zoom on the program window or change mouse scroll wheel behavior. While scrubbing on the timeline with the mouse wheel it's prone to accidentally moving the cursor over the video and unintentionally zooming causing a frustrating experience.

2. Setting to disable the nodes on audio transitions in the sequence timeline. They make it more difficult to make edits in the timeline.

 

Mod note: The title was changed slightly

Hi @jessenicoli Updating the status of this Idea. The first issue is affecting my workflow, as well. The second issue needs to be filed separately, if you don't mind. @jessenicoli. I'd be happy to advocate for that.

 

Thanks,
Kevin

Hey @CoachNick,

That is my issue too. I will advocate for a change as this affects me several times per session. It knocks me out of my workflow. I already let the team know that I'm passionate about this one.

 

Cheers,
Kevin

As topic, does anyone know how to disable this function? It is very annoying that the program monitor size change when you accidentally scroll on your magic mouse.

The issue for me is that I'll be hovering over either the program monitor or Projects window and accidentally move my finger up or down on my Magic Mouse - and it zooms in. Before I realized this was a new feature, you can imagine the confusion when I thought it was cropping the frame on its own. So this feature isn't the time saver you might think it is as I'm constantly zooming in when I'm just trying to move the cursor somewhere and my finger happens to move half a centimeter down at the same time. The ability to turn this function off is an imperative. Thanks.

Unfortunately, that option doesn't work for me. I'm wondering if you have other settings enabled or disabled somewhere that allow this to work for you. 

I'm on Premiere 25.1.0 and using a Mac MagicMouse, which is incredibly sensitive.

Right-click within the Program Monitor.
Select 'High Quality Playback' from the context menu.

I love this feature very much.

Was a bit of getting used to the frame scrolling over the lower part of the PM.

I agree with R Neil, I love the new feature since I can easily zoom in to make small adjustments to text or guides.

However, we need an option to turn it off or on.

I just want to add that I'm actually starting to use the feature and like it in certain situations, but not all the time and it is annoying that I can't map a keyboard shortcut to enable/disable it when I do/don't need it.

This silly update is driving me crazy! Please can Adobe make the ability to turn this feature off.
