Scrolling Playback
I love the fact that there are 3 different "views" for watching the playback of scores. I wonder about another one...
It would be great to have the blue cursor move to the middle and then have the actual score scroll to the left, with the blue cursor remaining fixed, mid-screen. This would be great for viewing, so that the last page and next half page are always on view. It would make it easier for recording the video as well when making YouTube videos of compositions.

When I record videos for YouTube, I often have to adjust the stave spacing for each page. With what I'm suggesting, it would be like the horizontal view, but the music would move smoothly to the left rather than the cursor moving to the right. How about it, techies?
(I notice as I'm typing here that there is no visible cursor - another issue?)

I tried this just now and nothing happens when I choose "Smooth Panning". I even shut the app down and started it again just incase but it doesn't seem to work. I would really love this feature! Has it changed since you posted this or is there another workaround to get the cursor to remain static while the sheet music scrolls?

Yes, me too :-( I'm running on:
OS: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore Studio version (64-bit): 4.4.2-242570931, revision: 3130f97
(I got that from Help / About Musescore Studio and press the "copy to clipboard" button next to the Revision.)
What are you running?

I do see a flashing cursor typing here on the webpage.
I've thought this kind of playback for a long time too. You've got my vote. It would be best to be able to set where the stationary cursor was. While you might like it in the center of the screen, I might like it to the left or the right of center.
