Default Re: Edit selection and playhead start

Please help me to understand your problem.

The reference guide states for dynamic transport mode:

"This means that you can start playback from anywhere on the Timeline without losing your Timeline or Edit selections."
"You can position the Play Start Marker independently of the Timeline Selection."

The wording in the description of the dynamic transport mode in the PT ref guide 10 is exactly the same as in the PT ref guide 9.

If you are in dynamic transport mode, have placed the playback location and then click a clip with the smart tool: if that moves the playback location, the ref guide would lie.
Because clicking a clip is making a selection, that shall not move the playback location.
The playback location can be moved by an insertion inside/outside the clip with the smart tool.
Or by clicking with the object tool outside a clip.
If a clip is clicked with the object tool, the playback location jumps to the start of the clip : kind of against the ref guide, but an offer for flexibilty for me.

If you want to playback a clip from its start when selected, why use dynamic transport mode ?
Please enlighten me, as I may miss a functionality/workflow possibility.
