Project
  1. Turn off the Pan Score Automatically function
  2. Open the Timeline
  3. Click on an out-of-viewport element marker in the timeline

Actual Result: The action does select the clicked element, but the view is not repositioned

Expected Result: On top of the action to select the first element in the target measure, the view should also be repositioned to focus on the location.

It makes sense to not automatically scroll the score into view when the outside-of-view selection is caused by a non-explicit user action. In the case however where the user presses something on the timeline, I think bringing the result of that action into view is most likely the desired end result.
