You mean a continue mode ? I guess FUNC+RUN could do that...

In pattern edit and you can use the '<- shift ->' soft-keys to rotate
the pattern around so that it's fifth step moves to the first step.
Or you can use the 'sync' softkey to reset any pattern on the fly.

Hmm... with record FTS on, recorded steps will have the Xd bit off, so
FTS will apply to recorded notes.
With record FTS off, recorded steps will have Xd on, so FTS will not
apply.
If you're not sure what's going on, try playing with the X bits manually
after recording in either mode.
Make sure you have FTS turned on for the part too - record FTS just
controls the X bits for recorded steps, it doesn't apply any FTS unles
FTS is on for the part.

That sounds like you have the global bar resetting your pattern.
From play mode, hit FUNC+track to enter playlist edit. Does the display
above F2 show 'chg=B' ?
If so, press F2 so it switches to 'chg=P', then hit FUNC then F1 to save
the playlist.
The pattern should now play in a loop of 7 steps without repeating step
1.
