playback cursor options

Post by jon_bondy » Sat May 03, 2008 1:58 pm

In previous versions of Audacity, I could start playback and then wander around the audio, but now Audacity ferociously returns so that the playback cursor is always visible. I can see advantages to this, but I want to turn this behavior off, and revert back to the older style. But I can't figure out where this is controlled. Does anyone know?

:)
