how do I make this work so that when I press the space bar, it will stop exactly where I press the space bar, instead of resetting back to begginning?
Hmm, as with most problems, if you don't say what program and version you're using an answer will sometimes only be reluctantly given. Information is key to answers. Can I suggest you read https://www.magix.info/us/forum/please-do-the-following-before-posting-your-question--621831/ ?
A good way of finding out answers to problems is to Read The Manual (RTM for short [or in extreme cases RTFM]) that comes with whatever program you are using. If you open the manual and do a search for "spacebar" it's amazing how the answer magically appears.
Just this once, because I'm feeling generous, I would suggest opening File/Settings/Program/Playback/Program Behavior and alter it there.

Hi
Small correction to the where the setting is - File/Settings, Program, Playback, Spacebar Behaviour.
I too would advise you to read the PDF manual available under Help - you may have to download it - all basic setup items and usage of the program are covered in the manual.

If the spacebar goes back to the very beginning, there is a problem with the project. It can be resolved by one of two methods; use the second one if the first one doesn't work:
