Storyline 360 Audio Editor Cursor Jump

This has been slowly driving me crazy for years, and I was wondering if anyone had experienced this and/or has a fix. 

Whenever I'm proofing/editing audio, I like to do it externally in something like Audition because it's faster. However, when I'm revising content and need to cut a few words from the previous VO, ideally I try to use the Storyline 36o audio editor as it's right there for immediate updating with no exporting/importing. 

Typically, I listen to the audio while watching the waveform in the editor. I'll see what I need to cut, but when I try to click and drag to highlight for deletion, the CURSOR always jumps. Can I lock the cursor in place when I'm zoomed in. The only tried and true fix I know of is to be all the way zoomed out. I'm attaching a video for further explanation. 

  • Hello Everyone! 

    I'm happy to share that we have released a new update for Storyline 360 (Build 3.87.32265.0).

    In this update, we have implemented a fix for:

    • The playhead sometimes jumped to an incorrect point on the audio waveform in the audio editor.

    As a first stepI recommend updating Storyline 360 to the latest version. Here's how:

    Update Authoring Apps

    If you have any questions on Update 87, please let us know in this thread or privately in a support case.

    Have a great day! 

  • I believe if you click on the timeline and not on the waveform, the cursor will jump to the spot you want.
