I don't think there's anything I can do directly; scripts only have access to the basic mouse pointer - not multi touch or gesture stuff.

That said, I'll add "allow the window to open with a specified offset" to my hypothetical to-do list, so you could fiddle around with pixel amounts to try and make it behave consistently.

I would hardly call this a FR but just curious if the bouding square box of the radial menu can be hidden ? And you just get to see the disc ?

Nope. Reaper's API won't let us remove the window frame or make the background transparent.

I'm assuming that's AutoHotKey trickery or something?

An issue I found if you have the main Reaper DAW window over to the left out of the way then click Add in the Menu tab, it will bring the dialog up in the center of Reaper, so if the center of Reaper is off screen you can't see it or access it.

The dialog box is a Reaper function, unfortunately. All I can do is tell it what to put in there.

That's the intended behavior - it stays open as long as you hold down the shortcut key. You can change it in the Radial Menu Setup script, Options tab.

If you installed it with ReaPack both of them should be there. If you downloaded it manually you'll need the Setup script as well - see the first post in this thread.

With the new JS-functions, do you have plans to get rid of the "square"-window-surroundings of the Radial-Menu?

As far as I can tell 'til now, this could be possible, but don't know enough about the implications necessary, yet...

I'd like to, yeah. Currently working on updating Radial to the current GUI from a really old version so I can actually update it again.

There isn't a Linux x64 build of Julian's extension yet though, so I can't play with it.

Lokasenna, your Radial Menu is really a game changer for me !

It's unbelievable how fast I can be with this little gem, thank you thank you thank you <3<3<3

May I suggest something for the next iteration ?
If it's possible, it would be nice to have the shortkey option independant for each sub-menu 'cause for some of them I 'd like to close the menu when the shortkey is released but for other ones, I'd rather not.

Have a nice day

I'm happy to add it my "some day" list, but I think it would be pretty complicated to add so don't get your hopes up.

Since that JS extension has simulating mouse click API maybe we can finally bypass that hack to keep it opened while it detects a key press(because if you open it and click in the script it is momentarily detected) ?

The time where it uses that hack before the key message starts repeating is so short that I doubt you'd have time to mouse over and click an item.

Lokasenna_Radial Menu Setup.lua:11: attempt to concatenate a nil value (local 'script_path')

ok solved it the scripts have to be placed in together in C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\REAPER\Scripts\ReaTe am Scripts\Various

i had them in C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\REAPER\Scripts which wouldnt work

Default Weird (I think) bug for key bindings

This really is amazing

I checked out admiral bumblebee's vid above and really dig his thinking about shortcuts and using key bindings. So much so that I was thinking about building a custom midi controller to control it (sticking to 8 tabs or less and using Bome midi translator to pass the key bindings)

However in some preliminary tests with the key bindings with regular keys, they were behaving erratically.

(I tried the gif thing with licecap but failed, sorry, I'll try to explain)

A simple 4 button key binding W,A,S,D (top, left, bottom, right respectively) worked as follows

W fired left, A fired bottom, S fired right, and D fired the back button (it lit up the gui and did not actually go up a menu) (the key binding hints showed as I had mapped them)

So they were all one off with the binding at the top not being fired at all. Hopefully that's clear. I really tried to read through this entire thread as it was as informative as it was entertaining but I really only made it a touch past half way. Hopefully this hasn't been gone over already.

Cheers to a job well done, really really looking forward to this!

I'm guessing it's just me with this behavior. I know Lokasenna's busy but can anyone else test the key binds to see if they have the behavior described above?



EDIT:

A fresh portable install works as intended. Not sure what the problem is :/

EDIT 2

t turns out:

It was an actual bug with key binds, Admiral Bumblebee sorted me out. Here's the pull request he made for the fix.

https://github.com/ReaTeam/ReaScripts/pull/126

Its still weird the keybinds worked correctly out of the box with a fresh portable install of Reaper/sws/reapack but making the correction in that pull request manually fixes the issue.

Default Radial Menu not showing in MIDI Editor Actions section

Hi and thank you, Lokasenna, for the awesome script! It's so futuristic I wish it was a part of every OS

I'm new to Reaper (love it!) but I can't figure out one thing. I suspect the answer is simple but I've been looking for it for days now. I see that everyone here is using the script all over the DAW but..

When I open Actions list and select MIDI Editor in the top right Section drop down, Radial Menu is not on the list, so I cannot set a shortcut or run the script in MIDI Editor. I tried re-installing the script but in the script description itself it says: Action List: Yes (Main). I used ReaPack to install.

So what am I missing?

Hi and welcome to Reaper forums.
To run Radial Menu (RM) in MIDI editor, you can assign the same shortcut you assigned for RM in the 'Main' action section to the action 'Misc: Pass through key to main window' in the 'MIDI Editor' action section.
Also, note that for triggering MIDI actions you need to prefix the action Id's with 'midi' in RM.

Thank you! I read the post explaining the steps several times, it's rephrased many times in the thread, but I didn't realize that "Misc: Pass through key to main window" is an action so I missed the point )

I have to put sooooo many entries in for the mouse buttons L-M-R so I just changed the Paste function
to paste the clipboard to make it quicker, don't know if it will cause any issues anywhere else ?

Code:
local function paste_act(btn)
  --local ret, act = reaper.GetUserInputs("Copy/paste actions", 1, "Copy/paste actions here:,extrawidth=128", ( mnu_arr[cur_depth][cur_btn][btn] or "" ) )
  local act = reaper.CF_GetClipboard('')

  --if ret then
    mnu_arr[cur_depth][cur_btn][btn] = act
    update_btn_settings()
  --end

end

I was just looking at amagalma_Find action or script name by its Command ID but it writes an Actions list text "_S&M_DUMP_CUST_ACTION_LIST", but maybe it could use reaper-kb.ini to get the Command ID description ?
The Action name could sit under the Command ID:

Not everyone has SWS, but yes.

The current version of my GUI has clipboard functionality on all of the textboxes, but Radial is using a really old version. I got partway through updating it a few months ago but unfortunately it's pretty far down on the list of stuff I have to do.

Lovely idea, though it might be awkward for actions that use some of the other Radial syntax and not just an ID.

Now I'm trying to put a radio in to choose from two different user settings.txt
one will move the cursor to next/previous regions
the other next/previous bars.
Is this possible ?


chord_bar_str = "Chord,Bar"
chord_bar_opt = GUI.Radio:new( 1, 10, 10, 40, 40, "", chord_bar_str, 4)

local settings_file_name = (script_path or "") .. "ReaTrak Circle of Fifths - user settings.txt"

I'm trying to put a little radio up in the top left of the Radial Menu window so
it will load users settings 1.txt that has all

the left mouse click > select previous region

the right mouse click > select next region



now in user setting 2.txt all the mouse clicks are set to

the left mouse click > move cursor back one measure

the right mouse click > move cursor forward on measure

Maybe I can do all that in the existing user settings.txt


rename the existing left/right actions to action_left and action_right

then use the radio to set them ?

If I can get the options like in the main GUI, so the L\R mouse will move next/previous region or bar or beat.

Default Where to find the "|“ (on a mac, german layout)?

Hi,

I want to change/rewrite some menu entries and need the "|" sign.
I'am on a mac whith german keyboard layout and the normal alt+7 combination does not work, it seems that the alt-key (⎇) are generally not recognized/ implemented..
Copy& Paste does also not work.

Is that a known issue, is there a workaround for that?

I need the | sign, otherwise the fantastic radial menu is pretty unusable for me..

thanks!
