I’m guessing this has been the behavior for a long long time, but, should it be? Is it intended?
I feel like ‘Return To Start on Stop’ should still work so that the user can use both of these intentionally. This way, ‘Play Selection from Start’ only needs to be hit once.

Corrected title from ‘Play From Selection Start…’ to ‘Play Selection Range…’
I made a mistake, but, the behavior is still questionable. I mean ‘Play Selection Range’, not ‘Play Selection from Start’.
1.) Enable Preference ‘Return To Start On Stop’ (Automatically returns to start on stop, no double-tap of stop required)
2.)Select an Event
3.)Execute command ‘Play Selection Range’
4.)‘Return To Start on Stop’ doesn’t return to start.
-In the Preferences>Transport, with ‘Return Start Position on Stop’ enabled
-The above preference is negated when using transport-command-functions ‘Play Selection Range’ and ‘Play From Selection Start’ - both commands cancel out the preference or don’t work properly:
—‘Play Selection Range’ plays until selections end, and stops and end - does not return to start.
—‘Play From Selection Start’ returns but erroneously to the end of said selection, instead of start.
Sorry, just for my curiosity, could you simply pick one of the 2 possible options I described above, for me? For me it’s not clear at all, which one would you consider as the “Start Position” (what does the preference says).
Im looking for return to start on start. Same as Ableton . Hit space bar plays from selected position. Hit space bar again transport stops dead. Hit space bar plays from selected position again.
