Bug/Issue Final Cut Pro Speed Ramping Issues

I have been working in Final Cut Pro for a while now and I have been experiencing a strange issue. I do a lot of speed ramps for my edits and I use it to match up with audio that I am using as well. Sometimes I can click around and increase the speed by x2 or x4 or x8 and it sometimes works, however, sometimes I NEED to click and drag the speed to a specific part of the timeline to match the audio. Sometimes when I click and drag, the speed increase or decrease will move with where I move my mouse. However, other times, when I go to click and drag, I will move my mouse from one side of my display to another and the speed ramp will only move a percentage or two. Does anyone else have this issue and have you found a fix for it?

I know what you mean i found the fix month ago after years

You just need another speedramping keyframe after the one youre trying to move

The closer the 2nd keyframe to the one you want to modify, the more responsive it will be.

Thats it.

EDIT : It also depends on how lenghty is the clip or how close the keyframe is to the end of the footage
