    i need a key command to move the arrangement screen to start where the time cursor is

    so that the green line is at the start of the arrangement screen at the same point as it is now

    its just to move the green line...at the start of the arrangement window..while remaining at the same point as it is now at 6.1.0 for example

    Default key is "W"

    sorry, I only watched your picture and misunderstood your question.

    You can also use the shortcut "scroll view right" which is assigned to shortcut alt+right arrow

    it works perfect on certain zoom levels.

    I think he's asking for a command to move the left border of the arrange view to the cursor.

    Just move the lower (horizontal) scroll bar to the right?

    Just press the Up or Down key, or move the scroll-wheel and it will center :wink:

    I tested it a little bit, first zoom in or zoom out with mouse wheel, then use shortcut alt+right arrow and the view moves exactly at the beginning with playhead.
    If you don't zoom before of applying the alt+right arrow shortcut, it doesn't move to the beginning.

    It works 100% here.
    Be sure to zoom in/out before of alt+right arrow

    Interesting, it's the same like moving the scroll bar here. No jump to cursor.
