Track view gets huge when I hit the automation button

When I'm looking at tracks and want to check to see where I set the automation, I click on automation and the track view GETS HUGE. I can resize all of the tracks, but it's a PITA. Solutions?

Since Sequioa update, Logic Pro X is glitchier than ever. Updated iOS to Sequioa 15.3.1 New Logic Pro X glitches: 1) If I make edits during playback, even very minor, sometimes it keeps "playing" but stops actually playing the audio - goes radio silence then will suddenly output audio for a second then chop back out, even after I stop doing any edits. Usually I have to quit & relaunch to fix it. 2) Logic now automatically zooms way in on all tracks when switching modes, instead of returning to my prior zoom level in that mode (flex time, automation, etc). Really annoying to keep having to zoom back out so I can view multiple tracks and work. 3) This one was already happening before the Sequioa update: Logic often adds automation to tracks. Settings I never open or touch or add. It just randomly adds them in. Usually dry signal delay, sometimes other parameters. Really ridiculous. And if I move a segment from one track to another, it might add multiple non-existent automations, meaning I can't even access them to remove them, they are in the background and are not listed in the plug-ins. How can Apple consider this a professional program and have such major glitches, after all these years? Y'all couldn't figure this out yet? Really? And iTunes has gotten worse with updates too, removes playlists I created upon quiting and re-opening. And no access to track time/scrollbar when in iTunes with phone unlocked, only from lock screen. Huh? Let's take technology backwards, that'll be cool. Dude iTunes in 2012 was more functional. Why does apple keep making things worse with their updates? *Not a hardware issue, I am working on a 2022 M1 Macbook Pro. And my Logic Pro X is up-to-date.

Vertical Auto Zoom might be a good fit. If I am honest, I need to learn more about they "why" behind this but this could help for now as the Vertical Slider is adjust for you depending on which view you are looking at.
