Description qubodup 2016-09-22 15:29:18 UTC

One major usability issue of Kdenlive is the delay, which takes place when commanding the playhead to move.

One of the consequences is that zooming into the timeline requires a lot of stop-and-go user interactions.

You can't simply zoom into an area, you have to click the area, wait for the playhead to appear there and then you can zoom.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Zoom into the timeline with ctrl+mousewheel

Actual Results:  
You zoom into the playhead location

Expected Results:  
You zoom into the location of the cursor
