What would make working with Cakewalk much more fluid would be the following:
Seamless zooming and panning only by extending the existing functionality in Cakewalk:
1. Horizontal Pan and Zoom based on the behaviour of the "timeline zooming" without the need to find the spot on the timeline that activates the timeline panning and zooming. --> This could be done just by pressing e.g. Alt+Ctrl+Drag (horizontal) any place in the Track View, PRV or any other view.
2. Vertical Pan
