Thanks to everyone who contributed. Many of us have been pointing out these same issues for years, including the videos I posted years ago.

The new multi‑view GUI makes the underlying problem even clearer.

BIAB has grown organically for decades, one view at a time, and that’s why looping, cursor positions, selections, panning, zooming, and scrolling all behave differently depending on the view.

The GUI refresh was a great step, but improving the user experience now means unifying these fundamentals so the views feel like one coherent application.

Consistency in the basics keeps people in the music instead of fighting the software, and I hope PG Music will acknowledge this and make it a priority for the next phase of BIAB’s evolution.

Thanks again for everyone’s time and input.
