If you wish to select from bar 20 to bar 22, could always just go to the edit window, hit numpad slash, type 20, slash, type 22, then hit enter. All on the numpad. I believe that would work. Or do slash slash slash 2 if your playhead is at bar 20. I've never heard anything about holding shift and going by bar to select, will have to try that and see if it works. To answer your second question, get in slip mode, then hit down and up arrows to select the strum, hit command x to cut, then move your playhead to the beat you wish the strum to be on and paste it there. Should work. May need to use the selection start and end length adjustment commands or whatever to get the entire strum, can't remember those at the moment but I'm sure there in the manual somewhere. Hope this is helpful.
