SC 26.02.22, Win10: I set a filter (audio gain) in the track head of a long clip (> 1hr). I want to set keyframes now and then, looking at the waveform in the timeline, then switch to keyframes view and adjust my gain points. But when my cursor is somehwere on the timeline and I switch to keyframe view, I always end up at 0:00. When I jump to the “next” keyframe, I end up at the desired position (where my cursor is), even if there are several keyframes set befor the cursor - so it is definitely not the “next” one after 0:00. Not sure if if do something wrong, but I would expect, that when I switch from timeline to keyframe view, I see the keyframes around the cursor position and not at 0:00.
I also find it annoying that the zoom factor of the keyframe window is independent of the zoom in the timeline. Is there a way to sync the zoom factors of those two views?
If there is a good reason why these zoom factors are not synced, I’d like to understand why.

Hello @Samse26 , i also find myself scrolling when editing a keyframe in a clip longer than a few seconds. In this example i’am in the credits and want to “roll” in the muscians, while their music already plays. I share your thoughts, but on the other hand i’am not annoyed, instead i find myself thankful about Shotcut in general, because i enjoy working with it.
I have however another “problem” with keyframes and playheads. On the timeline i set the playhead to a very specific frame where i want a existing keyframe to be. In keyframe-view i see the playhead, still being where i left it, and next to it the to-be-moved-keyframe (image 1). In the very moment where i drag that keyframe, the playhead jumps to cursor position, rendering my frame-specific playhead-position useless (image 2). Because of that i tip with a finger on the sreen to maybe find the previous playhead position. I haven’t found anything about this in the search-function. Is there a keyboard-shortcut or any other trick which lets me set an existing keyframe to the playhead-position?
Thank you all in advance,
best
Florian
