Thanks - that is a helpful video but doesn't address my question.
I suppose what I am looking for is an equivalent of "Time Selection Auto Punch" but for automation.
The problem I am describing in my original post is workflow related and not related to my understanding of automation modes (or lack thereof).
Another example to illustrate the problem: Let's say I have ridden my fader in the verse and am now coming up to riding levels in the chorus. I would like Reaper to start recording automation once it plays back past the beginning of the time selection. If I need to do a fast ride at the entry to the chorus I will end up messing up my automation pass in the verse as Reaper will start recording automation as soon as I touch the fader.
That could be avoided if Reaper could be told to punch in automation in the time selection only - unless I am mistaken this was not covered in the video. It may not even be possible in which case I will create a feature request.
