The setting bar for adding loops... I don't know what is. The tool settings panel is way too huge, we know this I believe we will address the general fatness of the attribute editor in Maya. However, you shouldn't having that opened to work Maya modelers don't normally work with any windows. To toggle proportional modeling, you'll press and release the B key. To adjust the proportional radius, you'll press and hold B - same as in XSI in this case. For everything else, it is in marking menus. (For example, hold W and LMB for the transform tool menu, or Q for selection) There shouldn't be anything you need in the tool settings that isn't in the tools's marking menu
