Continue looping timeline selection during playback editing

[dickymoore]

Hello

One of my working methods is to loop a couple of bars and make midi adjustments while it's looping.

Usually I do this by making a midi selection, which creates a selection in the timeline as I have "link timeline and edit selection" enabled, then hit play, and make the adjustments while it's looping.

However, during the looping playback, whenever I select MIDI notes, the loop selection is lost and playback continues without looping.

I imagine that this is probably expected behavior, seeing as "link timeline and edit selection" is enabled, but it used to be the case that the loop would continue until I stopped playback.

Is there a setting I've disabled accidentally which controls this behavior? How can I have the loop continue despite me making edits to the MIDI, and without disabling "link timeline and edit selection"?
