Caution!  If you use "Edit - Select from Event to End" (Shift Alt End) to adjust the timing within a song and you happen to have events in one or more Scratchpads you need to know:

Even though you performed Select from Event to End within the main edit window and even if your scratchpad is closed, ALL of the events within ALL of your unhidden tracks in of all your scratchpads just got selected too.

Result: Timing within your scratchpads is now off by the amount you moved in the other window.
Result: Studio One may hang/crash if you happen to move the event to the left and one or more Scratchpads has an event already all the way to the left.

This is especially bad if you happened to have hidden one or more tracks.  Otherwise, the movements would at least maintain the existing timing.

Please vote up for PreSonus to change this behavior such that:
"Select from Event to End" only applies to the current Edit Window, whether that be the main edit window or the current Scratchpad.

Thank you for your consideration!
