Summary0001421: Horizontal scrolling position is 'overly persistent'
DescriptionIf the user scrolls horizontally and selects a track in the new horizontal position, then MM 'locks' to that new horizontal position. This is good except that:
1) If the user dragss the scrollbar back to the left and then
 a) clicks the down arrow to go to the next track
 b) clicks another node to view other tracks
-->the tracklist remains in the 'locked' position (what should happen is that once the user switches the horizontal position to another one, it should 'lock' to the new one, but unlock whenever the user changes the horizontal position again).

Octopod also suggested at http://www.songs-db.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1856 that whenever the user switches nodes, the view should reset to the leftmost column in the tracklist. I'm not sure whether this is the optimum behaviour or not--this is the behaviour in Windows Explorer, but Windows Media Player behaves as MM does--I'd leave this as is.
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

Raising to 'urgent'. This is a common annoyance.

Assigned to Petr for a review. Technically the problem is that when content of VT is changed, it makes sure that the focus rectangle gets to the visible part of the screen. If possible, we should try to avoid this.

There is one issue remaining (reported by Riber). If Title column is moved far to the right (i.e. not visible by default), is focused, then user moves to Now Playing node and back e.g. to Playlist node - Title column gets focus and therefore tracklist is horizontally scrolled to the right (which doesn't look good).
