Long time Cakewalk user since version 5 through to Platinum. This is my first post after deciding to try Cakewalk by BandLab on a completely new Windows 11 PC build. Initially, I thought it might be a Logitech driver issue, but that's not the case. I even uninstalled the Logitech drivers and still observed the same behaviour on WIndows 11. The scroll wheel works fine to pan up and down tracks when I am hovering over the clip view. The moment I hover the mouse to the left of the clip view over the track controls in the audio track strip, all vertical scrolling stops. Sometimes, if I don't click to the left of the clip pane scrolling will continue to scroll for a bit (perhaps until the software recognizes where I am hovering over on the interface), but the scroll wheel function will be disabled immediately if I click anywhere to the left of the clip pane, until I move the pointer back over the clip pane. Then the scroll wheel works again, as normal.
For example, when I want to solo a bunch of tracks, I have to click "S", then move the pointer to the right over the clip view, then scroll up to the next track I want to select, then move back to the left, click "S" (disables scrolling), and move back to the right, scroll up/down, and repeat back and forth just to solo a bunch of separated tracks in the track view. Attempted the same task on my version of Sonar Platinum, I can scroll up and down over the control buttons in the track view with the scroll wheel. The scroll wheel is not disabled when I hover over the track controls in the audio track strip, so it is not a Windows 11 issue. This loss of the scroll wheel is really disruptive to convenient workflow. There's likely way more improvements that have been made to Cakewalk by BandLab, but having to go left and right or even farther to the right to grab the scroll bar is a serious pain. Is there something I am missing here folks? Some special control key that enables the scroll wheel to work properly, or at least the way it does in Sonar Platinum? This cumbersome back and forth is not necessary in Sonar Platinum... and I was hoping to make the jump to BandLab with the new PC build. I find no evidence that this is a Logitech driver or Window's issue, given that there are no such issues on Sonar Platinum. Is this scroll wheel behaviour on Windows 11 and Cakewalk by BandLab version 2022.01 (Build 029) a first, or have BandLab users just come to accept the loss of functionality?
