[Rwp] Automation

I suppose you could accelerate the play rate into the stratosphere and get
to the end of the project that way but there must be a more elegant
solution,

That reaper default behavior of not staying put when you write automation
but snapping back to the original drives me nuts.

I stil haven't figured out how to defeat that behavior, if anyone has a
quick tip on that, would be very appreciated.
I'm from the village of automation users that wants it to stay where I leave
it till I change it again.

But different strokes and all that.
