Re: locked Play Region/cursor

But we need to decide if it is "Quick Play" as Steve has it in the app or the hyphenated "Quick-Play" as it has always been in the Manual up to now - but note that Connie has never made a ruling on this. I'm minded to think that I prefer it with the hyphen - as it is nomenclature...

Wahay, I see from the latest nightly 21Apr15 that Steve .has now already supplied a way to do this. There is now an extra item in ...
