sonar jumps back to start

When I stop the project at whatever measure , just as an example say 24, after starting and stopping with the space bar a time or 2 the project suddenly jumps back to the beginning!!   Really annoying!  WTF

    You've toggled the behavior. I think it's CTRL or Alt W
    It's a handy feature as it will jump back to where you started with a punch in.

    You can also change this behaviour in the track view options menu by toggling 'on stop rewind to now marker'.

    Comment deleted -- relevant to personalized installation only.   Ctl-W default is to toggle the rewind to Now option.

    Much faster than remembering it's not a thing in preferences where it should be, it's in track view, going to track view, reading the menus to decide whether this is going to be a View, an Option, a Track thing, clicking Options, reading a bunch of rather long menu names, and finding the one with different syntax to click.   

     
    Hmmmmm....one of those moments when you wonder why you bother.
     
    EDIT: Just realised this dude is not even the OP! I take the sentiment back:)

    Hmm   I will read that link.  i wanted to know how to stop at now time anyway.  I used to be able to set that in global options in sonar 8.  I can't find global options in platinum

    It is still doing that and I can't figure out why.   REally annoying.  I think it is a bug

    Sonar options are in Edit>Preferences, with many of them global, and some will only show up when you have a project open, as they are project-specific.
     
    But yeah - that parameter to control whether or not Sonar rewinds to the Now Marker, or simply stops wherever you are when you stopped the transport - is accessed not through Preferences, but from within the project - as a checked/unchecked parameter found under the Options tab in the Track View.  It is named: On Stop, Rewind to Now Marker.  
     
    You can also access Preferences by simply hitting the shortcut key 'P' on your computer keyboard.

    Thanks I will dig around in that.  I will try and describe again.  it will rewind to the now marker as it is supposed to (I am familiar with that option from the old sonar) a couple times-or a lot of times- then it will suddenly rewind to the beginning of the project

    I experience this once in a while while auditioning clips in a loop region.
     
    Tap spacebar to start, tap again to stop - repeat x times......often quickly
     
    Every once in a while the now time will jump to the beginning of the project. There are other older threads on the forum that report this. For me it is random and impossible to provide steps to reproduce on demand.

    This sounds like what happens when you rapidly press the spacebar twice. This will put the Now Time marker at
    01:01:000
     
    This is not a bug and should be instantly repeatable

    Double clicking the spacebar quickly does not normally RTZ on my systems.
     
    Edit: After trying it some more on a new project it does but seems intermittent. I bang on the spacebar and it rarely RTZ... Maybe I should use a metronome

    I was messing around with a new project and it seemed to mostly work so I edited my post. I agree with you it seems a bit off and don't think the timing of the hits can fully explain it being so intermittent.

    This is a really weird thing and I can't get consistent results - even using 2 hands to make sure it's not timing. For the most part on my systems it does not RTZ with a quick double tap on the spacebar and when it does it seems like an anomaly.
     
    When I saw the reply saying it was a shortcut to RTZ, I tried again on a new project and it was working!?
     
    ...but now it doesn't again even after trying different projects and a reboot. idk
