Edit2: What program do you use for scripting this stuff?
Ok, it should work now (added "RPR_UpdateArrange()" at the end)

Yes, there isn't any function to get mouse cursor position. This is how the script works:
- unselect all items first
- get item count with "RPR_CountMediaItems(0)" (0 for active project)
- loop in range(item count)
- get every item's ID, start position and length
  • ID = RPR_GetMediaItem(0, index)
  • StartPos = float(RPR_GetMediaItemInfo_Value(ID, "D_POSITION"))
  • Length = float(RPR_GetMediaItemInfo_Value(ID, "D_LENGTH"))
  • EndPos = StartPos + Length
- "RPR_GetCursorPositionEx(0)" gets edit cursor position in seconds
- if edit cursor position is between item's StartPos and EndPos, set that item selected. "RPR_SetMediaItemInfo_Value(ID, "B_UISEL", 1)"


Sorry, I cannot explain it better.

I'm using PyScripter:
