Jog Loses Focus in Premiere Pro

Question

Hi everyone,I’m using a Contour Multimedia Controller mapped to the Adobe Premiere Pro timeline, with a jog for scrubbing back and forth. The problem is that if I click on another panel (e.g., to edit a mask or adjust an effect), the jog stops working because Premiere loses focus on the timeline. To make it work again, I have to manually click back on the timeline, which disrupts my workflow.Is there a way to keep the jog functional regardless of where I click inside Premiere? Maybe a setting in the controller software or a workaround using third-party tools?Thanks in advance for any help! &#128522;

I use a 'Contour shuttle Express', and I don't need to have focus on the timeline panel. I'm using a custom mapping which is different to the default for PP and it always works to shuttle the timeline.

The easy way I've found is to use K+L and/or K+J, it will scoot the timeline while you can mouse the mask, left/right also move the selected mask point.
