Can the Sonar do "nothing" after "UnFreeze" or "Undo"?

Hello colleagues!

I am very glad that in recent years, Sonar has made significant steps in usability and reducing the number of bugs. I am very impressed with the progress.
But, in some things I continue to "stumble," losing time in the work process.

Each time, after unfreezing the track, Sonar automatically focuses on the selected track. It happens this way: the first track is selected and I unfreeze the instrument somewhere in the middle of the project, it can be 20, 50 or even track number 100. After unfreezing, the focus suddenly moves to the first selected track and I completely lose my orientation. "Where am I? I just wanted to unfreeze a specific track, but how did I get here?". And I have to scroll down the page, searching for the track I worked with.

Something similar happens after the undo of the creation of a new track. But it worries to a lesser extent.

And here I have a couple of questions. Maybe there is an option to turn off autofocus after unfreezing?
Maybe you share your feelings when working with (un)freezing or ways to improve the workflow (so I do not feel lonely with my problem, lol)?
Thank you!

    I'm guessing that because it's restoring the state of the track before it was frozen, that would include the fact that it had had focus when it was frozen. More often than not, that's what you'd want, since you un-froze it for a reason, presumably to edit it.
     
    But I agree, it would be more logical if all that happened was the unfreeze. As it is, even selected tracks are de-selected after an un-freeze. I'd suggest submitting an enhancement request to leave currently-selected tracks selected after a freeze/unfreeze.
     


    All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.
