thanks Heda... right I did something like with basically empty items colored black..... and put them between the items with notes...
however it would be much easier to just have the script show black when there is no item, ...right?

Of course. that is a temporary workaround until the script does this. I normally have configured the script for black or very dark background always.

<u><i><b>Text</u></i></b> display text</i>
<b><i><u>♪ BOnjour ♪</u></i></b> only display ♪ BOnjour ♪

The first one... Is that proper HTML, changing the order in nesting the tags? I don't know. The second one, I don't know why it doesn't work, but I hope that part of the code will be better in the Lua translation. In fact I have it all translated to Lua except that part heh

You are right for example 1, messing with tag order is not html friendly, of course.
It was bit confusing to write that on a mobile, i didn't noticed that there was an error in my report.
I will test that again to see what went wrong.
Becauwe V5 will came out soon, I am writing an article that explain all lf the new things to know for subtitling with text items

Ok got it,
<b><i><ul>Bonjour</ul></i></b> => <ul>Bonjour</ul></i>
While testing it appears that there is other errors so I guess I will wait the Lua version before making an intense debugging ^^
But I know you are already very busy with your Loudness graph... :P That said, I'm waiting patiently for all updates about the Notes Reader, as it is really a game changer script for my subtitling workflow
Note that the Color from background function is broken on Mac, just as with the loudness graph (blue blackground items appears orange in notes reader when background color from item is choosen)... I hope that cockos will dig the subject as it is a major problem for script like this one.
(For a future note reader update, if you need the wordwrap code snippet I showcased in another thread, it is on my github under Templates).
Cheers !

I am also hoping Cockos will fix this color issue. I don't want to fix the code just to have to revert it back again when they fix it... or at least the y could say something about it, to know if we have to fix the scripts or not..
the problem is that I am busy with other things, not REAPER related. If I could be full time programming, Loudness Graph would be already finished. And Notes Reader too. I'm not finding too much time for scripting this month. Not as much as I would want to. Life is complicated.

Hi heda !
It's been a whilew I hope all is fine for you and your projects
I was making some dubbing and I face a small error in eel Notes Reader 0.96 : it seems than display next notes doesn't display multiple lines text items. The first line of the next fade nicely, but the other are displayed as lines of current item.
Thank your for listening

Heda,, your notes reader is amazing!
Just tried out the different things it does. so cool!
There's talk on another thread about using the "video processor" plugin in reaper to create a script that could print something like your notes straight on to the video but I don't know if that's possible because they might not talk to each other or be able to see each others' variables etc.
Experimented with anything like that yet?

@musicbynumbers Thank you very much
Yes I think video effects are EEL code. But I haven't experimented with them yet. Maybe it is totally possible to retrieve the text from the items and display them in the video window! Or maybe not.. I have no idea. I need to experiment with it a bit.

Now I'm turned between the excitement of what heda said and then the sadness at what x-raym said next..
Sigh.. What a cruel world!

I'll be voting for that and will pull others to vote for it too as it would be super useful to have these two things linked some how

Heda and X-Raym..
Just wondered if either of you had a script for bulk entering item notes?
So the selected items got the same note.
I use item notes on PIP items to allow me to very quickly select and render a certain set of items.
I name them stuff like "render_set3" and then in sws find I can search for "set3" and quickly re-render out all of those items at once.
So far though, you can't group rename so hopefully someone has a script for it but I've not found one yet.

@musicbynumbers
Note: If you don't like the item Notes Processor or if you need something more powerful, you can still use the SWS take label processor, and use my X-Raym_Swap selected item notes and take name.lua script.

Thank you very much for your notes reader. I am using it to put up lyrics and chords as songs progress - for the forgetful or new band members.
I use track 1 for chords and then a child track 2 for lyrics. Great stuff.

@ludwigmueller @Fabian @RSG Thank you very much. Yes I use it with Lyrics and Chords too. You can also use it without child track using two instances in separated docked windows. One for lyrics and another for chords. To do this you can create a duplicate of the script file and edit an internal variable inside it sectionname = "NotesReader"; to a different name like"NotesReaderChords" for example.

Hi Heda
I set up a copy of the ell script and named it Heda_Notes Chrods Reader.eel with a sectionname of NotesReaderChords.
There seems to be another Mac problem like the one that prevents window docking mentioned in previous posts of this thread. When I try and run the script I get:
Error: /Users/username/Library/Application Support/REAPER/Scripts/HeDa_ Notes Chords Reader.eel:127: syntax error: 'font_name = " <!> Arial"'
I get it trying to run either the copy of the script or the script itself. When I remove the copy script from Reaper everything is ok. I seem to be able to run two windows from the same script but I'm not going to change anything to do that, given that is not supposed to work. I was looking forward to having separate background colours for the two tracks. Nevermind - still very happy with what I have so far.

I don't know, it should work
Are you sure you only modified the sectioname ?
font_name = "Arial";
cannot be a syntax error. That's a simple variable for the font you want to use. I don't know if Macs have Arial.I can't test it on a mac, sorry.

Sorry to hack... Notes Reader work perfectly here but window place is not kept in memory, and i can't dock it.
I use a macboock OS Snow Leopard.
Thank you Heda in advance.

Thank you. Seeing that the font command was the next thing down in your script it has to be my error. I tried again, but this time uncommented your 'secondary' section name that was already provided (commenting out the original sectionname with two //s) and it worked.
I now have two Heda note buttons on my toolbar. This means we have the choice of displaying one or the other or both of the lyrics and chords now. Thank you.

we still don't have a way to place a window at specific coordinates so the only way to have it opening at a position is to dock it. Why can't you dock it? Try right click to open the options one it is docked and press SAVE. Then the docker id will be stored for next time it opens.

On Mac, you can't right click on top bar of GFX script to dock it.
I don't know if this problem has already been reported.

oh I see.. I didn't know that. Maybe I missed it. But can you right click to show the options? Then I should add a button there to dock it.

I saw that in Colorswatch thread about window positionning ? but i think it was for lua (i don't know anything about programming ;-) :
reaper.Main_OnCommand(reaper.NamedCommandLookup('_ BR_MOVE_WINDOW_TO_MOUSE_H_R_V_B'),0)

I am glad that there is a potential fix for the Mac docking problem - being on a Mac as well.
I hope you won't mind me asking a question about sub projects and the secondary notes reader box. I have all my songs (27) set up as sub projects that are opened from a main project by double clicking the audio.
Track 1 has the chords displayed and, as I go from sub project to sub project, the primary heda notes reader always picks up the notes for the new song. I do have that track selected as part of the saved subproject.
Track 2 has the lyrics but unfortunately the secondary notes reader does not pick up the lyrics automatically, even though when you look at its saved settings the track ID is set to 2. So each time the secondary notes reader must be closed, track 2 selected, the notes reader re-opened, right click to get options, select the track ID of 2 to get the lyrics displayed, then save settings.
Is there anything I could do about this, other than going back to the parent/child single notes reader approach?

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm more interested in having the notes show in the media item than I am in the reader itself.
When I add a note to a media item, I just get an icon. I would like to be able to see my note inline like in the example. Is this part of the script? Because I ran the script but just got the reader.
I'm tired of looking at 'Untitled MIDI Item' for so many of my items, so I thought I would hide labels and use this for optional labels.

@RSG: I think I may have to rewrite NotesReader in Lua language and make some changes. I have it 50% done. Because right now I don't find myself capable of switching back to EEL
@Publicradio: No. that's not part of the script. That's how REAPER displays the notes in empty items. Must be empty items. Doesn't work in MIDI items.
You should name the track before adding midi items to it, so they don't get the "untitled item" label or you can rename them afterwards with SWS label processor.

heda, thanks for the reply. Even if I name my track 'xxx', then create a new midi item, it will be called 'xxx untitled MIDI item'. I would prefer that my items aren't labeled at all until I do it manually. I see that the label processor can wipe out all take labels at once. Can it also set label defaults?

oops you are totally right... when drawing the items manually they get the untitled MIDI item suffix. Recording items get "Recorded MIDI" suffix. I've never bothered with it.
You can hide/Show the labels with the actions "View: Show item labels" and "View: Hide item labels"

I updated your script to allow entering of X and Y coordinates (into script) for window position for anyone who is interested. Put the updated version on your site if you like?
NOTE: Requires Reaper v5.20 or above
