Return to start or zero position when playback or recording stops?

Maybe I'm just missing it or maybe there's no such setting in Cakewalk.
 
Is there a setting that will make it so that when I hit Stop, either when in playback or recording, the playhead will automatically return either to the 1:00:00 point or to the place where I started playback/recording?

That Ctrl W toggle is something I use a lot.
