Set Rate | Set the sample rate of this track. Upon import, the track sample rate is set to that of the imported material. A resampling feature is planned, so sounds of different sample rates can be combined in to one project.

Set Snap-To Mode | Snap-To-Grid On or Off. This only has influence on making selections. Especially useful, when combined with the cdda selection format when cutting up tracks for CD burning.
