Default Two mixer visibility states? Please help!

Hi guys,

I'm trying to make my Reaper behave (as we all are)

I'd like to have two different mixer views triggered by two corresponding hotkey shortcuts.

Mixer view docked: https://i.imgur.com/v43o4rE.png
Mixer view full screen: https://i.imgur.com/TZZrsNe.png

Now, as you can see, both mixer views have different track heights and different send/receive panel heights.

I made two 'Windows' screensets to swap between these two views, however the track or panel heights are not changed by it.

Seemingly the 'Track Views' should work, however, I tried making a custom action with 'Track views' + 'Windows' screenset... doesn't help! Because, the 'Track views' screensets are only valid for currently existing tracks and is not a global parameter... If I make some new tracks, or delete and re-create pre-existing tracks, the 'Track views' setting saved does not work.

Is there any workaround for what I'm trying to do?

TL;DR - how to swap between different GLOBAL visibility (track height, send/recv panel height) settings for the mixer?

there maybe some limitations but try this:

for your floating mixers... resize whatever and save that as a new screen set.. in other words, I have one for the TCP with mixer docked as track inspector...

and another with mixer on monitor 2 floating full screen

and another with mixer on monitor 2 but the window only half a screen tall which makes the tracks in it much smaler...

worth a try anyway

Thank you for the suggestion, that doesn't really do what I want though.

It's RADO V4, but modified quite a lot by me.

SWS Snapshots might get you closer then...

Unfortunately SWS snapshots don't recall the track heights
