to all BIAB users who use it mainly as a wonderful practice tool,

I posted this in the "Wishlist" post as well, but think this is something that should be addressed in a new build in the existing version:
------------------------------------------------
It has been a while since I upgraded, but noticing while it is nice to have the spacebar stopping and starting playback (as opposed to older "x" for start and "escape" for stop) and 2 options for the way it works within preferences in the latest version of BIAB, a most basic functionality is no longer available.

For the sake of not having to use one's mouse to fuss with playback - it is no longer possible with BIAB 2016 to select (click) a bar number and and have the music ALWAYS start at that quickly highlighted bar when hitting the space bar. The only options available in Preferences: it either a) starts only from the beginning, or b) plays from the current bar where the music STOPS.

the older versions of BIAB, one could quickly click on any given bar, press "X" and no matter how far into that passage or further into the song one played, when stopping the music, when pressing "X" again, the music would always start from the bar that you originally clicked on. Surely, I am not the only practicing this way?!

It is simply no longer possible to do this on BIAB 2016, short of double clicking on the same bar with one's mouse or track pad - which is a pain when one wants to be focussed on learning to play any given number of bars of music repeatedly from the same spot no matter where you tell the music to stop playback. Ie, key commands are where it is at, and the simplicity of just hitting the space bar only ONCE from the selected bar (so it always started from THAT BAR and does not recommence playback at the current bar where playback was stopped, or from the beginning) is surely a useful way to practice for many people using BIAB. Even if one has to hit a different key to stop playback, this basic functionality would be an asset if it were to return to BIAB 2016.

Could this not be added to preferences as third option of playback functions in a new build for BIAB 2016 for Mac, but of course specifically with the space bar if possible?

sincerely, Carlos
