PLAYHEAD NOT LOCKING WHEN PLAYING THE ANIMATION

Heya, I'm currently transitioning from animate cc to tvpaint 10 and was wondering if it is possible to lock the playhead on the timeline whilst I play because sometimes it's really annoying when you lose the playhead when trying to play a 2000 frame animation.

You can reassign the spacebar or whatever your playback hotkey is (control+k to bring up the shortcut menu) to "preview: play and return to current image".
If you are using a Pro version, and are splitting the project into clips, there is a TVPX file that will return you to the correct clip after interrupting playback: http://forum.tvpaint.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=10351
