How to center view when playing back a track in piano roll?

I recently watched this:

At 3:15 he plays back a track, and when it gets to the middle it stays centered. A much more comfortable way of viewing in my opinion.
Is this feature possible in X1?

    It would be nice, for X1 to operate as you explain. I imagine that it is more processor intensive to redraw the graphics that represent the tracks as they scroll across the screen, while the cursor remains static, than they way X1 currently works, that is, the screen redraws once for the time it takes the cursor to travel from left to right.

    But I'm new to X1, so I can't be absolutely sure that this option is available or not.

    Nothing happens other than that the "go to time" window pops up.
