The Now Slider touch screen behaves erratically. I'm using X3e on a Dell P2714T.
Please fix this.

I've confirmed it doesn't work properly. When you slide your finger left or right, it jumps wildly. You cannot tap in the middle and have it work.
 
Also Quick Groups work only sometimes. For example, you can use quick groups with touch to expand and collapse the Pro Channel on multiple tracks, but you can't use it when moving a fader or enabling record on multiple tracks with touch.

Geoff -- thanks for confirming.
 
I work with three monitors: two side-by-side non-touch screens for the track view and plug-ins, and a touch screen below them that replaced a Mackie Control Universal. The mixer is on the touch screen with the control bar below it. In this configuration, I was hoping I could touch the Now Slider for cursor positioning instead of using the mouse or keyboard.
 
As you mentioned in your video, the Now Slider works great with the mouse.

Yes.
 
I presume you're working in console view which is why you need it instead of the ruler at the top.
 
You could do the dock mostly to the top but not all the way so you can still see the ruler. Then you could move around using touch. It's a work around, but hey... I thought I'd mention it.
 
If you aren't sure what I'm talking about, I could make a video.
