Left-edge or rigth-edge click

[Rodilab]

Hi !

How do I know which edge I clicked on with ReaScript ?

I would like to create a script to "double click on item edge" mouse modifier.
But there is no distinction between left and right edge. And my script has to do different things if I click on left or right este.
How can I do it ?

Thx

These three allow you to get the item and the projectposition.
Just check, if the position is close the left or right edge of the item(left: item start, right: item start+length).

To get itemposition and length, use this:

I had to fight with Reaper in order to make this work with my script

You can't always get the item using ItemFromPoint when you are over an edge.

Best API to use is GetItemEditingTime, but it does not return the item.. You have to find it yourself... (iterate on all items on the track under the mouse cursor and compare each item's start and end position to the returned position)

track_under_mouse = reaper.GetTrackFromPoint( reaper.GetMousePosition() )
position, pcm_source, flags = reaper.GetItemEditingTime2()
etc...
