Much thanks for API updates, Justin.
Seems it is time to modify couple scripts I made.

A function to set last touched track would be good. (Maybe an action: set track under mouse as last touched track ( does not affect selection) would be nicer for non script users). You could then do away with prefs that select track on mouse click in arrange and have a limited number of clicks that prepare for pasting items on the clicked track. I think the current workaround requires save track selection, select track under mouse, set first selected track as last touched track, restore track selection. It doesn't play nice with auto arm. That probably applies to the script in the link in the quote too.

Hi Justin et al,

I was advised to post this here... as you may be able to include this feature? The original FR thread is here.

Being able to change the state of the Toolbar Icon ("arming the button") as if we Right-Clicked on it (for example to change the mouse behavior like a mouse tool).

To be able to do what I did in this video without having to actually click on the Icon... just use a short cut:

Thanks.

And Lokasenna had some thoughts...

retval: True if it found the action on a toolbar and was able to arm it, false if it didn't or it couldn't.

Note that it definitely should not arm the action if it doesn't appear on a toolbar somewhere (maybe even a visible toolbar, just to be sure).

Yes, please Justin, if you'd find the time to include this... would kick ass!

Missing newline or something in the docs (win7 x64). Getting some of these kinds of things:

Code:

F_MCP_SENDRGN_SCALE : float * : scale of send area as proportion of the fx+send total area (0=min allow, 1=max)P_PARTRACK : MediaTrack * : parent track (read-only)

I can't get any of the "P_PROJECT", "P_PARTRACK", etc things to give anything but 0.0.

Perfect - especially the first one - thanks Justin.

Hi,

Is it solve this issue ?

Thanks for the API additions.

Quote:

add TrackFX/TakeFX_ Set/Get Offline

replaces my SWS equivalents (in current SWS pre)

and I think

Quote:

add TakeFX_/TrackFX_ CopyTo Track/Take
add TrackFX/TakeFX _Delete()

replaces SNM_MoveOrRemoveTrackFX() (as from the decription for 'CopyToTrack/Take' it can also be used to move (reorder) FX on the same track).

If wanted, I could put a note in SWS API docs that these are deprecated now (when 5.95 goes official) and native versions should be used instead ?

Cool, new API-stuff

Is there a chance for an implementation of getting/setting ProjectStateChunks, as in my FR?
https://forum.cockos.com/showthread....69#post2020169

Maybe into GetSetObjectState and GetSetObjectState2?

_Stevie_ · 08-07-2018, 10:26 AM

I concur! Spread the API-love
