I cannot find a mouse mode that consistently allows me to move around within the workspace while the song is playing without interrupting the playback. Both the Object Mode and Universal Mode intermittently interfere with the Play Cursor; likewise, both are randomly independent of the Play Cursor. For each mode this is true despite the mouse cursor being below the Play Cursor's (head). To put it another way: in Object Mode, I never know if moving my cursor around will change the active Play Cursor or not., and the same can be said for Universal Mode: in that mode, just as in Object Mode, I never know if moving my cursor around without will change the active Play Cursor or not. In former versions I'd find the mouse mode that did not affect the movement or location of the playing Play Cursor, and stick with that, but so far I haven't found it for this new version.
My version is Pro X8 19.1.2.23428 (DP3) - Unicode
