Continuous view is often better when you are doing detailed editing. Try the different views available: If you are working in either of the two page views (across and down), that tends to introduce irritating jumps. If you are a Windows user (which I am not), it is my impression that large monitors are considered a bit of a luxury. It also cuts down on errors, as it is somehow easier to proofread a large sheet of music than a small one. Lots of monitor real estate dramatically reduce frustration and disorientation. If you are a Mac user, start thinking about getting one of those wonderful 27-inch displays.
Things I have found to be helpful when working on a particular measure over and over:Ī large monitor is your friend.
I don't think there is a way to disable or alter the scrolling behavior.
