Repositioning Now Time during playback?

Hi-
 
If the Transport is stopped, I can click anywhere in the Clips Pane to change the Now Time, but if it's moving, I have to click on the Time Ruler. Is there a way to change that behavior so "anywhere" will work?
 
Thanks-

    Hi Brundlefly and Susan,
    I've actually wondered about this too...the Left Click Sets Now option works great when the transport is stopped, but not when it's running....at least not on my system. IIRC it's been that way for a while now. Always kinda bugged me but never enough to say anything about it. 
     
    Brundelfly, when you try this does it work for you? That is, just open a blank project, start playback and click in the TV somewhere other than the timeline. Does it move the transport?

    Sorry. I didn't realize it didn't work with the transport running. I actually have it disabled because I prefer not to have the Now time move every time I click to select a clip. I'm used to having to click in the timeline to change Now during playback. Or I use Next/Previous Measure/Marker accelerators to jump around.

    The only way to do it using the mouse is to click the lower half of a Take lane. Note that this doesn't work if data of all clips in the lane is locked (it works when only the clip position is locked). I find this behavior incomprehensible (edit: the behavior is probably due to the comping feature introduced in X3).
