Yup...I'm back at my automotive project this weekend and continue to discover little anomalies in X2.  For instance:  Everytime I re-enter the PRV my view settings are changed.  By that I mean that I like to see my notes as big (apparently) as the zoom vertical slider will let me.  But when I re-enter the PRV they are back to a few notches back so they look like "lines" instead of "rectangular notes".  Is there a way to make the PRV quit the heck doin that???  Plus my age old problem of the PRV not showing any notes when I enter it is still with me in X2...only now it's worse.  In X1 when this would happen all I had to do was exit and then re-enter the PRV to make the notes show up.  With X2 it doesn't matter how many times I exit or re-enter...I have to exit, move the cursor/now time to some other location and then back to where I want it and then re-enter the PRV.  Plus, I know I'm a dimwit, but I still can't suss the snap in TV versus the snap in PRV and sometimes even my settings for length of entered notes seems to get changed at random.  I haven't downloaded the quickfix yet.  Will this solve a lot of this goofiness??  Thanks for any input you can provide as per usual.

There is some goofiness with PRV in Sonar X2.
Sometimes it will display completely zoomed out where the notes cannot be seen and sometimes it will display the notes correctly.  The one I really like however is that you never know where in the project the PRV is going to open to.

For instance, you are working at measure 45 in your project in TV and open the PRV and PRV opens to some random part of the project even tho now time is set to measure 45 and you double clicked at measure 45.

As far as the notes not displaying correctly in PRV, If you double click on the midi track again PRV will then open correctly - likely as not. At least it does for me... sometimes it has to be done a couple of times.

The quick fix will not address any of the prv issues.

Well at least it's not just me seeing this weirdness.  I also discovered that my PRV just quits scrolling with playback seemingly at its whim.  And you're so right about never knowing where PRV might take you in any given track.  I was working on some horn parts and it would not take me to those measures no matter what I tried.  I think part of my problem is that usually enter the PRV using Alt-V and not double clicking on a clip.  I'll try that and see if it helps.  Thanks for confirming my suspicions  Kevo, ol pal.

If PRV or TV doesn't scroll during playback, it usually means there is data selected.
If you move the mouse to the ruler at the top of the window and when the cursor turns into the hourglass thingy and right-click scrolling should then continue.
 
I actually like this feature.
 

The TV scrolls fine but if I enter the PRV lately it's just quit scrolling.  I'll check the new feature out and see what happens.  I'll keep ya posted.

Thank you so much for this.  I have been so frustrated editing midi drums and would always loose my now time bar.  This is a life saver.  Thanks again. 

I'm finding goofiness too in PRV. When I open PRV the notes are tiny and I have to zoom each time to get them back to the larger size I prefer. I think I've also been having some random 'don't know where the now time is' in PRV.

Thanks for confirming this...who else????

I am constantly having to change both my snap settings and note lengths when working in the PRV. I'm not zooming in or out at all, just entering and editing notes at one zoom level. And yet at least every couple of minutes I am screaming "HUH?" as I realize they've changed yet again. Assuming this isn't just dumb ole' me misunderstanding how things work, this needs to be fixed pronto. 

he's dead, Jim...
