Hey Team,

Awesome job on 2.4.0 #10!

Couple quick questions;
Jeffos.., now that you're on the "inside".., any idea if eel support for extension exports is coming anytime soon?

Breeder:
Could you maybe add a "perform until shortcut released" version of SWS/BR: Move closest grid line to play cursor.., so we don't end up with all those undo points?

Thanks!

Do you guys use the SWS betas?
Should I go for it everytime even though it's no the 'official' release?
I'm still stuck at #3 from February...

I am wondering if 2.4.0 #10 is going to go official asap? It seems working well on my system and the new volume functions are AMAZING!

A lot of people won't use a beta and are missing out big time... i too am wary of anything beta, but this new stuff is too good to wait for.

What's the intended usage for something like that? The point of that action is to simply tap it while playing, not hold it.

I can vouch over the years for never having one show stopping bug SWS

It could be because most of the great features are "on the side" and don't get in the way of main reaper features. In other words... I'm always in beta and it's been fine so far

In the meantime, use this .py script (also needs SWS):

Code:
from sws_python import *

position = BR_PositionAtMouseCursor(True)
RPR_AddProjectMarker(0, False, position, 0, "", -1)

Well I was just experimenting with setting Timebase to Beats then I created a loop and while holding down the shortcut I had assigned, it would start to stretch the audio to where the play cursor was and on the next loop pass you could hear the effect and then adjust more if need be. Keeping the shortcut held down was creating alot of undo points.

It turns out I'll probably just be using the action 'SWS/BR: Move closest grid line to mouse cursor'.., plus the day after I posted, it dawned on me that I could write a ReaScript that would eliminate the extra undo points, so no need for that extra action.., sorry if you already looked in to it

Oh.., by the way I don't think I thanked you for the 'SWS/BR: Move closest left/right side grid line to edit cursor' actions from a couple of pre's ago.., so thank you! they have been realy helpful. It might be nice to have similar actions for 'Move closest left/right side grid line to mouse cursor'?

Thanks

I recently found the very useful action "Set 'horizontal zoom center' to 'mouse cursor'".

But everytime I open a new project I have to run the action again otherwise the zoom will still be linked to the edit cursor.

So is there a way to make this a toggle action?

Do you simply want to have this setting permanently ? (could be that I misunderstand)

If so, you can also set it in Preferences -> Editing behaviour -> Horizontal zoom center

If that doesn't fit, you can also have a action run automatically at Reaper startup I think I've seen in the forum but never used that myself.

Or, if you want to make it toggleable, have a look at the SWS cycle action editor.

Doh... Thanks! That was easy. I searched in Editing behaviour -> Mouse

Didn't find it there, haha.

But that's exactly what I wanted! Thank you

You have to run the action every time you open Reaper because it does not save settings modified from the extension.

I think SWS has a way to run a set of actions on loading a song/default project

Look in the extensions menu for a "project startup action" option.

EDIT: got beat to it

SWS team

I know this is probably not an easy one (as it would probably be there already) but I would give anything for some kind of "word wrap" option in the notes window!

I do a lot of copying and pasting notes from clients into the project notes and because it gets pasted as a long line I have to go through it and hit enter quite a few times at the end of the line to get it "pseudo wrapped" and visible.

Would be amazing if that was doable at some point

EDIT: entered as an FR now too.

Since JeffOS is now working for Cockos, is there any change in the future that some (if not all) of the SWS features will be merged into Reaper itself? It'd be really awesome to have all these great features without having to install a plugin, even though I'm forever grateful for the work you've done already. :-D

word wrap

I've been through the same several times, pasting stuff in the Notes window then manually wrap with Enter to fit.

So auto-wrap option would be very appreciated here also.

Indeed. Sometimes the "little things" become "bloody mountainous" for sure!

I don't think that will ever happen for the whole extension...it's open source and stuff are getting added/fixed on a regular basis. If it enters REAPER, we (with the exception of Jeffos) won't be able to do much to fix or add new stuff.
It would be much better if REAPER installation simply supplied latest official SWS version. However, that could confuse people and issue tracker would probably start getting spammed by SWS issues too...

SWS update checker has been added some time ago - so once you get the extension (event REAPER manual mentions it, so it's not hard to stumble upon it) you don't have to lurk forums etc...to get get notified of updates.

Spotted by babag in this thread http://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?p=1398491:

The actions
_SWS_RESTOREVIEW
_SWS_SAVEVIEW
and the WOL ones which go with them
_WOL_RESTOREVIEW (2-5)
_WOL_SAVEVIEW (2-5)

all mistype "arrange" as "arrenge" in their clear names , as in
SWS: Restore arrenge view, slot 1

Makes it hard to find them in the list if you use the keyword "arrange"...

Default avoid s&m warning box

I use a lot of nested regions in my projects. Every time I click on a region in the playlist I get this warning box saying "the playlist might not work as expected. It contains nested regions" is there a way to not have this box come up ever time you click on something in the playlist?

Default Pre-Recording

Hey guys,

as far as the FRs about Pre-Recording aka. Quick Punch Mode aka. Recording during count-in/preroll don't seem to be on J&S's plan, I'd like to ask the awesome SWS guys if it would even be possible to implement it in their extensions.

You can find the related FRs here:
http://forum.cockos.com/project.php?issueid=2497
http://forum.cockos.com/project.php?issueid=3588

I wanted to know if you have enough access to the API and if there are guys out there who would then have the coding skills to do it I don't ask for when this could happen, only if it would be possible

EDIT: got beat to it
Is there something like this for inserting new tracks?

It would be pretty sweet if I could have reaper unarm all for recording, and record arm newly inserted track only. If I could set that to work with specific track templates, that would be even better, or... maybe necessary actually, because I don't want microphones to blast in on max. Unless, the action could be run before the track is inserted, which or if it is inserted as selected, and there is an unarm all other tracks feature, and I can save templates record armed or not as desired.

Point is, it would be a cool feature to mess with if it exists.

I don't know if it's an SWS bug in the newest pre-release, but my folder auto-colouring stopped working, and the colours are gone for my existing projects (which has made me realize how useful it was for organization) :/

Weird, this happened to me too when I updated Reaper! All my settings were saved EXCEPT that 'Tint track panel backgrounds' had become unticked. This destroys SWS autocolor

Me too.

I only noticed it because I was writing a script that coloured items and when it seemed not to work, that setting was the cause.

Nevermind, it's the only change I've noticed. I don't see anything linked to the SWS extensions that might be the cause, though.

Hi SWS developers,

is it possible to add these actions for next releases ?

1) ITEM SLOTS & TRACK SLOTS
- set selected item to item slot (n)
- set selected track to track slot (x)
- trigger item slot (n) from track slot (x)
- trigger item slot (n) from track slot (x) (sync with next measure)

2) is it possible add "Sync with next beat", "Sync with next grid" options,too ? (also for media slots that currently we have)

3) Change the color of triggered item to a specific color, and then change the color back to the original when item playback stops

If we have those actions, I think that would be a kind of solution for ableton session view requests. Users visually can see their clips(items) on Reaper and trigger those clips as the play cursor moves.Users can use different tracks to trigger clips(items) to use different automation, fx needs.

Lets say you have 8 tracks and put all your items across tracks between 1-64 measures. After the 64th measure,you start your session.As the playback cursor moves you trigger those items between 1-64th measures. Those items's colors change as they triggered.Trigger items from different tracks for extra automation and fx needs.
Thanks...

in the what's new beta page http://sws.mj-s.com/whatsnew_beta.php
where
"Due to limitations in Reaper API, we can extract audio data only from certain parts of the audio chain. Chart can be found here. A few gotchas:"

the link "here" doesn't work

Yeah, sorry about that - because I expected for the release to happen soon, I moved the image to wiki which also describes new, upcoming features:
http://wiki.cockos.com/wiki/index.ph...dness_with_SWS

Whatsnew link is updated for the next build, but it's still unreleased.
I got word from Jeffos we will be releasing this week so keep your fingers crossed - there are a lot of goodies in the new update.
