Set Punch to Selection (Ctrl+F9)
This command sets the punch in and punch out points to match the current range of selected measures so that only the currently selected range will be composed.

Set Punch to Loop (Ctrl+F10)

Set Loop From (F11)

Set Loop to Punch (Ctrl+F12)
This command sets the loop start and end points to match the current punch in and punch out points so that only the current punch area will be looped. This is useful when you are composing a particular area and only want to hear that area after you compose.

Set Punch and Loop to Selection (Alt+F12)
This command sets both the punch and loop ranged to match the current range of selected measures.

Loop Follows Punch (Alt+Shift+L)

Punch, Loop & Recording Settings (Ctrl+Alt+P)
This command opens the Punch, Loop & Recording Settings dialog.

Enable Looping (Ctrl+L)
If this item is checked playback will loop between the loop from and loop to points, otherwise playback will play linearly from beginning to end.
