Thanks for your help Jon !
With your help i became aware of the 2 Reaper Actions that i investigated myself on:
Here we go:
1) Attach custom keystrokes to:
"Trigger next preset for selected FX of selected tracks"
"Trigger previous preset for selected FX of selected tracks"
2) Open a VST or AU plugin which has "vst programs" built in or "AUFactory presets (.aupreset) built in.
These presets will be visible in the preset tab, at the upper left corner of the plugin FX Window in Reaper.
3) Now just click this preset tab once and the you can close the plugin FX window.
(You won't even have to choose a preset, only clicking on the tab is enough).
4) Now hit the custom keystrokes you made for the "next" and "previous" Reaper Actions.
Outcome: The presets ARE skipped through, although the plugin's FX Window is closed, Yes !!
I tested this with several VST plugins from Tone2 and several AU plugins from UAD.
Now i won't state that this workflow will work with any VST and or AU plugin which has built in presets that are visible in the FX Window preset tab, but these results are already really satisfying and hopeful for me !!
OSX 10.10.5 , Reaper 5.21pre1 - 64bit.
