I think I get it. I found I could replicate 'modal' operation the way Trevor describes by working from a split screen between the two pages as shown below.

My workflow is to toggle between the two screens. Full function from both screens that way. So if my purpose is to continue to look for styles to audition, I view the Stylepicker. But at the same time, the current style that I've selected is still playing and available to tweak and experiment.

To work with the mixer or chord chart, I just minimize the Stylepicker screen and the chord sheet and mixer are displayed and I have access to every function as usual. I can change chords, tempo, key on the chord chart and I can solo, freeze, change volume and pan, generate tracks, add and delete instruments as usual.

I can do this all day long and nothing permanently changes with my work until and unless I save my project.

I deleted two posts with screen grabs because they became irrelevant when I was able to replicate the modal issue.
