How to make Audition more usable

The biggest thing with software is being able to navigate around it well so I just wanna tell you how to make a few basic changes that will make a world of difference.

 

The scrollbar on top where you zoom is set so it's way too small to be used when you're zoomed in, even to a moderate degree. You gotta set the minimim size a little bigger so you can still reliably grab where you want to when you're zoomed in.

 

There is an issue the the horizontal scrolling and vertical when the curser is in the main window (not the top bar). In most programs, even your own like photoshop, this is smooth. but in Audition, even slight movement vertically will make it freeze up and not go horizontal. And since human fingers aren't perfect, it makes horizontal scrolling completely unfunctional from a trackpad or mac mouse.

 

Make the track titles automatically stay within view when you're zoomed in instead of staying all the way to the left. When working with multiple tracks it's easy to get lost and we constantly have to zoom back out to see which track we're on, and with how unweildy everything else is this is extremely frustrating.

 

Back to the top bar, right now you have to click-drag horizontal to slide, and scroll to zoom. If you set the zoom control to click-drag vertical, we can do both actions in one motion instead of pausing and doing 2 separate ones.

 

If any of these can be changed in settings and you know how off the top of your head please let me know lol. thanks
