two right-facing arrows—at the top-right corner of an audio region

While working in Cubase, I noticed a small icon with two right-pointing arrows at the top-right corner of an audio region. I’m not sure what it means or what it does, so I wanted to ask directly.

I’ve attached a screenshot with a red asterisk marking the symbol.
