    WOW! I thought that would have been a bug, but no, it’s doing it in 8.5, and 8.5.1. I’ll look into it. I wondered why that kept happening to me to. I kept going, “Hey, I thought I had caps lock on…”

    I think it’s because many people (like me) edit with caps lock on all the time (for audio editing) and forget to turn it off for titling. It should be a preference not the default, if it’s a “feature”

    What does cap locks give you when audio editing?

    [Glenn Sakatch] “What does cap locks give you when audio editing?”

    The ability to scrub audio. when you advance frame by frame with the arrow keys you can hear the audio. Or when you drag the mouse back and forth. Otherwise you only hear it when you press play. Like SHIFT-S did in FCP.

    Apparently there is a new preference concerning this…

    General/Enable caps lock protection.

    Set to off and you should restore old behavior.
