Something is obviously very, very wrong.
Something is very wrong with my brain.
I was dragging in the conductor part of the ruler. Sloppy. User stupidity. Face has been repeatedly palmed as required by law.
Haha... bro... I have done similar things! I applaud and admire your honesty... don't facepalm too hard. Anyone who says they haven't had similar moments is lying or an alien!

Hardly alone. I’m always hitting the wrong spot up there. There are way too many things at the top of the window, and they all look the same. It would help if each of these bands were marked clearly so they can be distinguished. And it would be useful if the the colour gave you some clue — e.g. the band for memory locators that goes green when engaged could be a pale grey green, the overdub/record band a vague pink colour. And something clearer to indicate which band the cursor is in would help. I rarely hit that correctly on the first attempt. All of this gets worse on a 4K screen at full res.
