Transpose Region/Event +12 Semitones or Nudge Automation up 10 Steps ⌥⇧↑
This is a variation of a typical up/down command that is altered by the use of the ⇧ key. Typically the changes will be an order of magnitude (octaves when dealing with pitch) greater or smaller. I am bit surprised by the automation change being 10 since the MIDI background of Logic would be more in keeping with 8 or 16. I guess the programmers held sway.
I have been unsuccessful at transposing an audio region using this command, so my assumption that it is useful for MIDI only remains intact.

Show/Hide Beat Mapping Track Only
I have not figured out the difference between “Show/Hide Beat Mapping Track” and the “… Only” version of the command…
In the Arrange window the Beat Mapping track is toggled. In the Audio Editor (Track) there is a difference. The “only” version of the command places the Beat Mapping track above the audio. The other version shows the Arrangement, Marker, Signature, and Tempo tracks as well.
Beat mapping overview — Logic Pro X
Beat mapping lets you map notes that don’t follow a strict tempo with beats in the ruler. When you play the project, the project tempo adjusts so that the beat-mapped notes are aligned with beats in the ruler.

Save Selection As… ⌥⌘S
Located in the Audio File Editor.
Select a portion of an audio file (e.g. a kick drum hit) and save it as an audio file. Guess it can come in handy.
Audio File Editor overview — Logic Pro X
Important: Most edits and functions performed in the Audio File Editor are destructive. This means the actual data of audio files is changed. Although you can undo edits and processing commands, you should work with copies of your audio files, rather than the originals.
