fix(studio): play after switching compositions and timeline scroll bounce - #14
thecodacus wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
…unce Play button: the Player is keyed by composition id, so switching mounts a fresh instance whose initial 'pause'/'frameupdate' events fire from its own mount effects before Preview's effect subscribes. Preview kept isPlaying=true from the previous composition, so the play button called pause() on an already-paused player and nothing happened. Preview now seeds isPlaying and the current frame from the new player when it subscribes. Timeline scroll: the track area's scrollLeft was mirrored into React state, written back to the element from a passive effect, and fed again from onScroll. When the element moved between a state update and its effect (scrollbar drag, momentum, long frames during playback) the effect wrote the older value back and the scrollbar bounced. Scroll position now lives only in the DOM: wheel scrolling moves the element directly, and a zoom anchor is applied once in a layout effect after the new width renders. Consecutive ctrl+wheel events also continue from the pending zoom instead of a stale pixels-per-frame, so a fast zoom no longer drops steps. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>

Preserve horizontal wheel movement while zoom is pending.
After a Ctrl+wheel event sets pendingScrollRef.current, a later horizontal wheel event can update el.scrollLeft before React runs the layout effect. The effect then assigns the older pending value and discards that horizontal movement.
Suggested fix
e.preventDefault();
const delta = e.deltaX !== 0 ? e.deltaX : e.deltaY;
+ const previousScrollLeft = el.scrollLeft;
el.scrollLeft += delta;
+ if (pendingScrollRef.current !== null) {
+ pendingScrollRef.current += el.scrollLeft - previousScrollLeft;

Problem
398 / 269).Root cause
Preview.tsxrenders<Player key={composition.id}>, so a switch mounts a new Player. The new Player emits its initialpauseandframeupdatefrom its own mount effects. Child effects run before parent effects, so those events fire before Preview's[composition.id]effect has subscribed to the new instance, and Preview never receives them.isPlayingstaystruefrom composition A, and the play button callspause()on a player that is already paused.use-timeline-zoom.ts/TimelineEditor.tsxkeptscrollLeftin React state with two writers:onScrollcopied the element's position into state, and a passiveuseEffectwrote state back toel.scrollLeft. Passive effects run after paint (later still when the timeline re-renders every frame during playback, or when WebGL frames are long). If the element moves again before that effect runs, the effect writes the older value back, which fires another scroll event, and the scrollbar bounces between the two. Wheel scrolling also built on the stale state (prev + delta), so it discarded native scroll movement that had not reached state yet. A related problem: consecutive Ctrl+wheel events readpixelsPerFramefrom a ref that only updated on render, so a fast zoom dropped steps.Fix
isPlayingand the current frame fromplayer.isPlaying()/player.getCurrentFrame(), and forwards that frame toonFrameUpdateso the timeline playhead resets too.scrollLeftstate, the sync effect and theonScrollhandler are removed. Wheel scrolling doesel.scrollLeft += delta, and the browser clamps it. A zoom stores its cursor-anchored target in a ref, and auseLayoutEffectapplies it once, after the track area has rendered at the new width. Consecutive zoom events continue from the pending ppf and scroll offset. Fit-on-mount resetsel.scrollLeftdirectly.Verification
