Now Time jumping to beginning of the bar of interest
So, let's say I've clicked in an audio clip in the track view to set my Now time to 15.3.650 to highlight a peak in an audio track where I want a MIDI event to happen.
Before I can get to the PRV to move it to be the front-most window, my NOW time jumps to 15.1.0 with no intervention on my part. This is maddening in the middle of an intense MIDI editing session, as it happens over and over.
What I find really weird is that the second time I click the audio peak, the Now time does not move.
Am I rolling the cursor over some UI object that is causing this or is there some way to stop this behavior?

Could it be your Snap setting is set to one measure?
Notice, that PRV and track view have their own snap settings.

Bump
Does this really not happen to anyone else?
This still occurs in the Track View and the PRV.
Any thoughts from the Illuminati?

I don't understand what you mean about "Before I can get to the PRV to move it to be the front-most window..." Is the PRV not in the Multi Dock?
Can you specific steps to reproduce? I cannot create a condition where clicking on the Track View timeline doesn't cause the Now time to go to the same place in the PRV.

I don't doubt that the Now time in the PRV agrees with the Now time in the Track View.
The PRV is not in the multi-dock, rather I use it in its own window.
This is very frustrating when I am putting MIDI drums to a free-form audio track which was not recorded with a click, never mind bar lines. >8]
I locate a peak where a note of interest occurs and set the Now time to that point, then move the cursor to click on the PRV which is behind the TV, and apparently some artifact on the screen that I move the mouse over causes the Now time to change.
I'll see if I can make a video of this happening.

you might be clicking on zero crossings.
When switching to PRV view, don't click in the PRV note pane, just click on the header of the PRV Dock that's floating in your second monitor. Even if its on its own monitor it is still considered a docked window, just not in the multidock.

Thanks for the heads up, CB.
I think I have found what's happening.
If I click in the time ruler in the middle of a bar and then move the cursor over the Transport module in the toolbar, the Now time snaps to the beginning of the bar most of the time.
Sometimes it will stay in my selected spot if I begin playback and then stop. At this point, hovering over the Transport module does not always move my Now time setting.
I know it's probably SONAR just trying to help me somehow, but is there some way to defeat this behavior?

Have you tried some tests like turning snap off ?
or setting Snap to "To" or "By" ?

I cannot reproduce this.
Merely moving the mouse over the transports shouldn't change ANYTHING.
Unless your mouse button is faulty or a key on your keyboard is intermittent (I had that once).
You didn't mention the PRV in your last post, but the PRV has it's own independent snap-to-grid on the right.
Could be some interaction between it and the main snap-to-grid causing some unexpected behavior.
