In very early versions of Cubase this was more of a rectangle and was changed many versions ago to be a thin bar. As it is now its very unusable filling the screen left to right as an unorgansiable sliver. In 2026 a customisable resizable panel is surely possible?
I agree. I complained about the change a lot when it was introduced in Cubendo-10. Even now in N15, it is still impossible to get the entire Transport panel to be visible without moving it, even with my wide screen. I never could see any logic for making the change, other than change for change’s sake. Most frustrating
