Description

autometiondraw

If a song is playing and an automation window is open.
If then you move the cursor(cross) outside of the automation pattern you will get a pattern drawn in the color of the cross with y-coordinate defined by the mouse cursor( but not outside of the automation pattern...) and the x-coordinate defined by the Song editor position line. This is older than 1.0.3 .

Edit (@SecondFlight): Updated with GIF from #4986

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in the automation editor with a song playing: open an automation window and move the cross-shaped cursor outside the automation pattern. Trace the cursor drawing behavior and compare the drawn pattern's bounds with the mouse position and song editor position line. Done means no pattern is drawn outside the automation pattern while the cursor is outside it.
