Why does Ableton automatically scroll left in Session view?
When working on a project that has a large amount of tracks it is necessary to scroll far left or right. However sometimes after scrolling right into a desired position Ableton of it's own accord will just begin to automatically towards the left until hits far left. Then if you scroll back again, and let go of the mouse it does the same thing, just starts automatically scrolling to the far left.
Why does this sometimes happen? Is this a bug or is there some setting that makes this happen?

Live automagically scrolls to the best part of your track, which apparently for you is the beginning and then you start losing the script somewhere along the line. Live is saying “More of this!”.

It's the 'I prefer these bits' bug.

This is correct for arrangement view, but I believe the OP is talking about session view. When Live scrolls to the left in session view, it is trying to tell you that the 20 tracks of police sirens and 808 snares sound like shit.beats me wrote:Live automagically scrolls to the best part of your track, which apparently for you is the beginning and then you start losing the script somewhere along the line.

I've had that happen to me on occasion.
Solution was to close Live and re-open. It's a bug somewhere in the code.

Just press the Tab button to flip over to arrangement view then press it again to get back to session view and that'll stop the auto scrolling
