Shouldn't push display follow tracks as you scroll thru?

For example, you click on 'volume' and you see first 8 tracks showing their volume settings on push display (bottom row) but when you click on the right arrow on push to move thru tracks, once you get to track 9 and beyond, bottom row stays with first 8 tracks, only the middle row shows the next track.
Is this intentional?

Thanks for posting this. It's annoying me, too. Funny thing is: it works in session mode, but not in note mode.

I think this because in note mode arrows move between clips and in session mode they move the red box.

Right. It seems it will scroll tru tracks in session but it won't select individual track as it moves over.
In note mode does the opposite, scrolls&selects each track accordingly but won't show anything past the 8 track..... Really awkward, me thinks.

Hadn't really thought about it until seeing this thread as it seemed to make sense to me at least some other functions are less intuitive. Anyway, I think of the red box grid as the focus/lens where I want to look or move in an 8 by 8 manner and Session + Shift allows me to do that. And to loosely paraphrase login, note mode allows the view at the clip/track level within that 8 by 8 grid. I like to keep push in the Volume mode with overview of all tracks and this with the Session + Shift works well for me.

i contacted ableton about this when push first came and all i got was a lame excuse
so the only way to change the top display for note mode is to first move it inside clip mode after which you can move back to note mode. Seems like a glaring mistake to me.
