How to know which Scene is playing?

In a large session (with lots of tracks), the tracks with clips playing may not be visible (i.e offscreen).
In this situation you can't necessarily tell which Scene has been triggered and is currently playing.
This seems so wrong. Am I missing something?

This is also a problem with Push 1,2 where there are only 8 tracks visible at a time. Wouldn't it make sense to have the right column of buttons (green, time/div) that are used for triggering scenes, be made to flash or glow or pulse so you can see which scene is playing?
thanks

In Live’s prefs > Record Warp Launch > Select on Launch.

If you enable that does it help your problem?

Yes, this preference ensures that the triggered Scene row is selected which definitely helps. So thanks for the suggestion.

The problem with Push is still there. If the track contains clips that are disabled (0 key) they are still illuminated but do not pulse (Push 2) or illuminate green (Push 1) when the scene is triggered. Not great.
