Is there a way to enable "Selection Follows Playhead" while playing back my timeline?

 

This would be very helpfull when labelingand selecting clips. As it is now, I have to pause for playhead to select the underlying clip.

 

Thanks

Thanks for your quick reply, but this only enables "Selection Follows Playhead", which only works while timeline is paused or scrubbing around using your mouse.

 

When playing back my timeline (hitting space) the playhead doesn't select the underlying clips as it moves forward.

Sorry, just got your point. Yeah, that's how this option behaves, it only selects when the playhead lands on a certain clip. Can you describe how you're labelling your clips, maybe we can figure out a faster workflow?
