Default New script: Adjust distance between items via mouse wheel

Just made this simple script to let you adjust items' distance with your mouse wheel



EDIT: Instrction of the script
  • 1. Load it from actionlist
  • 2. Assign a shortcut with mouse wheel, such as Ctrl+ mouse wheel, or Shift+ mouse wheel, or any modifier keys that you like
Attached Files
File Type: lua DSY_adjust distance of items via mouse wheel.lua (1.2 KB, 250 views)

Nice script, dsyrock

Exponential distance would be much appreciated.

How does it work? If I try to scroll my view pans vertical as expected. Even if I activate the script it does not overwrite the standard behavior.

You have to assign the script itself to Mousewheel (or Mousewheel + modifier) via action list, this works for me.

I'm sorry that I forgot to write some instruction if it. And just try to do as Nofish said. And thanks, Nofish

@Indeo

You mean if I nudge one item with 1 unit, then nudge the next one with 2 units, and the next one with 4 units, and then 8, 16, 32 ......2^n?

My original purpose was adjusting and keeping the same distance of items at the same time. Because I'm going to use this to deal with the sound like footstep.

My assumption was that the OP meant that the first click of the mousewheel moves it a very small distance, and with each subsequent click the distance (for all items) gets bigger....

Exactly. Like a roll slowing down or speeding up.

Thanks dsyrock good idea

@Indeo
you can get exponential by changing these values

for left-
reaper.ApplyNudge(0, 0, 0, 0, 1+i, 1, 0)

for right
reaper.ApplyNudge(0, 0, 0, 0, 1+i, 0, 0)



0=ms, 1=seconds, 2=grid, 3=256th notes, ..., 15=whole notes, 16=measures.beats (1.15 = 1 measure + 1.5 beats), 17=samples, 18=frames, 19=pixels, 20=item lengths, 21=item selections

Hmm, I see. But I'm not sure it is a good idea. First, this is a "one-time-script",there is no FIRST click or SECOND click. Every click is a FIRST click. If you need the script to tell it's a first or second click, it must be written in defer mode, which is bad for your CPU. So I just simply dicided to nudge 1 frame each time.

If you think that 1 frame is not enough for you, feel free to edit the code as J Reverb said
