Glaxnimate window with vertical timeline scrollbar, but no horizontal scrollbar
SUMMARY
When additional frames are added to the timeline, they go outside the timeline
panel, and there's no horizontal scrollbar to reach them. If I use the
navigation keys (forward one frame, last frame), the timeline doesn't move so
the selected frame is visible. Frame 1 is always visible. I've worked in other
animation and video software, and horizontal scrollbar on the timeline panel is
a pretty basic feature.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new document, or open an existing document.
2. Simply resize the entire program window to a smaller size. (If it was
fullscreen, exit fullscreen.)
Another way to reproduce (how I found it):
1. Create a new document, or open an existing document.
2. Menu: Document > Timing...
3. Increase duration. Apply.
OBSERVED RESULT
The new frames extend beyond the timeline panel, and there's no horizontal
scrollbar to move beyond the initial frames.
EXPECTED RESULT
A horizontal scrollbar that enables user to reach newly created frames, and
move back and forth between frames on a longer sequence.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 10 Pro
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Thankfully I have 2 screens, so I was able to detach the timeline panel and
drag it wider across my secondary screen to see the added frames.
When the document is closed and opened again, the entire sequence is visible in
the timeline - the frames just shrink to fit. Not sure that's the best solution
for longer animations, at some point the frames will become to tiny to target
precisely.
Related issue: if the timeline is undocked and I stretch it wider than the
frames, the frames will stretch fill up any extra space. After dragging the
timeline to a more narrow width, frames stay the same size, they don't shrink
back. That leaves us again with frames cut off outside the visible timeline,
and no scrollbar to get them into view.
