Change pattern start point in Discovery Series?

In any of the libraries that use the Discovery Series interface (I'm using Cuba in this instance) when you have Sync enabled then the starting point of a pattern, when triggered, will be at the appropriate point in the bar.....unless you have any preceding bars that aren't in 4/4 - in which case the pattern will start in the "wrong" place.

So my question is: is it possible to keep Sync mode on (which is v. useful if you're changing tempi), but force a pattern to always start from the beginning when triggered?

 

AFAIK no.
