one question is there anyway i can lock my scrub when i hit play so the timeline is the only thing that's moving? its just hard to focus on my eyes looking for problem in the timeline when the scrub is at the end of the screen then it flicks to the continuation but its on the left side of the screen now.

if anyone having the same annoying problem and figure out how to change this please please tell me

edit: i tried using the scroll button clicking it up and down to keep it in the middle but the preview starts lagging is this normal, i do know that the preview is connected to the frames so im skipping frames when i scroll not an answer to my problem makes it worst.

is there a way to lock the scrub in a spot or have another scrub button to lock/block the scrub and the timeline starts to move

@Faustino-Palaca AFAIK there is no way of achieving what you want. I'm willing to be corrected on this if I'm wrong.

Hold down the "." key on the numeric keypad while playing?

@Faustino-Palaca Is this what you are wanting?

@jetdv I didn’t know that. Thanks.

@Jack S, that's one of those "accidental" discoveries - and it's probably also an accident that it works!

jetdv's suggestion works because the period centers the cursor. Backslash does the same thing. My example, which is a bit different is a hidden preference change.
