When in Continuous View mode with very long staves, entering a note in, for example, a measure about mid-scrren caues an unwanted left shift of the display, such that the measure is now leftmost on the screen. I would like to disable the automatic shifting of the display, such that it shifts only when I drag it manually, or when I enter the last possible note or rest in a righmost measure.

Attaching an example would help. My guess is that you have a very wide measure that would otherwise extend off screen and the shift is to make sure the full measure is view, which is normally a very good thing. I guess it wouldn't *hurt* to add an option to allow the active measure to extend offscreen, but I suspect you would find it not as nice as you might imagine to have things shifting around that you cannot see.
