Get and Set Ripple State

[andyp24]

Hi

I'm fairly sure I found an answer to this a while ago, but now I'm searching again for it (actually being ready to try writing the script this time) I can't see where.

How in ReaScript (Lua) do I get and set the values of the Ripple State, so I can change Ripple editing modes during the script and then reset them to the way they were?

Many thanks
Andy

reaper.GetToggleCommandState( command_id ) with related action IDs

That's the one!

Hey all, sorry to revive this thread, but I've been attempting to do exactly this but it doesn't seem to be working. My code basically get the state, turns off ripple editing, then restores the state after doing stuff (in my case, deleting stuff). I've tried using both SetToggleState and just running the action with Main_OnCommand, but neither turns on ripple editing again. Any ideas?

reaper.Undo_BeginBlock()

function deletePT()
  local delete = reaper.NamedCommandLookup('_SWS_AWBUSDELETE')  
  reaper.Main_OnCommand(delete, 0)
  reaper.GetSet_LoopTimeRange(true, false, 0,0,false)
  reaper.Main_OnCommand(40289, 0) --Item: Unselect all items
end


rippleOn = reaper.GetToggleCommandState(1155)
if rippleOn == 1 then
  rippleAll = reaper.GetToggleCommandState(40311) -- Set ripple editing all tracks
  -- reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(rippleAll)
  reaper.Main_OnCommand(40309, 0) -- Set ripple editing off
  deletePT()
  if rippleAll == 1 then
    rippleAll = reaper.SetToggleCommandState(0, 40311, 1) -- Set ripple editing all tracks
    -- reaper.Main_OnCommand(0, 40311) -- Set ripple editing all tracks
  else
    -- reaper.ShowConsoleMsg("blah")
    rippleAll = reaper.SetToggleCommandState(0, 40310, 1) -- Set ripple editing all tracks
    -- reaper.Main_OnCommand(0, 40310) -- Set ripple editing per-track
  end
else
  deletePT()
end

  
-- reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(rippleState)

reaper.Undo_EndBlock("Delete like PT (ignore Ripple)", 0)
