L
- -
whether the region position is locked, so that it cannot be moved.

G
- -
whether the region's position is ‘glued’ to bars and beats. If so, the region will stay at the same position in bars and beats even if the tempo and/or time signature change.

M

whether the region is muted, so that it will not be heard.

O

whether the region is opaque; opaque regions ‘block’ regions below them from being heard, whereas ‘transparent’ regions have their contents mixed with whatever is underneath.
