@Alex yes that's true, you can still open a window, especially as a beginner all those hotkeys are overwhelming what can quickly be frustrating. Something more intuitive would help a beginner/changer, @-L0ock- as an example, a long setting with 500frames i want to focus on a small area 12frames as an example, that would be easy to adjust with such a panel The picture shows the 2-window solution

* @wvolbers * Well, I'd rather just have the timeline open with its full potential instead of duplicating a few UI elements that would just clutter the UI and lose the beginner more than help him.

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that if you're animating using the graph editor, you're probably already using a hotkey to play/pause/navigate keys. That said, splitting a timeline right above your graph editor and saving a UI layout like that isn't that far from this. Only a difference of 10-15 pixels in vertical space. :o

Could you elaborate? Why duplicate playback controls from the timeline to the graph?
