Disabling “Lock to Clock” doesn’t really completely unlock the channel editor’s current time from the timeline unless you stop playback. It kind of unlocks it… but as you drag it past keyframes, it starts scrubbing forward in time with the timeline. Perhaps this is some intending functionality that I don’t understand.
Also, while deleting a keyframe (by moving the current time to a keyframe and pressing the delete key) Touch crashed… I got a popup about a “Pure virtual function call.” I haven’t been able to reproduce this problem.
