Default SOLVED: When selecting a grouped item, auto-select all other items in that group

Already exists... hidden behind the Grouping Icon... you must right-click on it to see that option.


Hi Guys,

FR: When selecting a grouped item, auto-select all other items in that group

This is different than the default Reaper behavior. When selecting a grouped item in Reaper, it's other grouped items behave differently than if they were actually selected. Yes, you can resize and move, but you can't (for example) delete the one of the grouped items and have all it's other grouped items delete.

Same goes with applying most scripts to grouped items, it only applies to the originally selected item in the group.

If there were a preference that "Selecting a Grouped Item Automatically Selects all other items in it's group."

Thanks.

This option already exists.

If you still have the main toolbar, there should be a Grouping button there. Right-click it to reveal the option to "selecting one item selects group".

Or just run "Options: Selecting one grouped item selects group" action.

AHHHHHH>>>>> it was hidden behind the right-click!!! I was looking all over that that kind of preference... ok... I will change the title to this FR as "Solved" in case some one ever does a search for it.

Thanks Evil!!!

First rule of Reaper: right-click everything. Literally, everything. You never know what's gonna pop up.

My config-vars-docs is also helpful. I probably (right-)clicked everything in Reaper existing somewhere to trigger them.
Just search through it and with a good chance, you'll find the option of your dreams...
