Stop and start at same point?

Question

I want to be able to stop and start at one point in a song.
As it is, when I press "play" from, for example, bar 3, then I hit stop at bar 6. I want to start again at bar 3, NOT bar 6. But for some reason Logic continues - like "scrolling" in ProTools.
I do not want to use my mouse to click back bar 3.
How do I stop / start at the same measure ?

Here is what I need:
Say I'm starting at measure 20. I place the playhead at measure 20. I press play and it plays for a few measures. I press stop, maybe at measure 24. Now, when I press play again, I want it to start at measure 20, like in ProTools.
hi glank .. you need to get into the use of Markers. This will easily solve your issue:
1 - Look up the Key Command for Create Marker at Playhead ( ie without Rounding)
2 - Look up KC for "Go to Next Marker" & "Go to Previous Marker".
3 - Place Playhead at measure 20. Press KC for "Create Marker without Rounding"
4 - Play for a few measures and stop whenever you want to.
5 - Now press the KC for "Go to previous marker" - with one stroke you are back at measure 20
6 - Press Play
If this is not quick and easy enough for you, I will eat my hat
