(All) Tracks height to Default

[ARkaine2]

Is there any action/script that will do "subj"?..

I searched in ReaPack and found only
Script: cfillion_Reset TCP height of selected tracks to default.lua
^ but the problem is that it works only for selected tracks.

In default actions seems that only:
View: Toggle track zoom to maximum height
View: Toggle track zoom to minimum height
View: Minimize all tracks

ATM I have custom action, that:
View: Minimize all tracks
View: Zoom in vertical
View: Zoom in vertical
View: Zoom in vertical
View: Zoom in vertical
^ but it's laggy.

I need script that "simply":
Reset TCP height of all tracks to default.

Use screensets (track views tab) to store and recall track height etc. I saved a default zoom level in my default project for this.

This is what I did - I made a custom action

Track: select all tracks
Xenakios/SWS: Set selected tracks to height B
Track: Unselect (clear selection of) all tracks

Then I put a button for it on my toolbar.
I did this a long time ago, as far as I can remember, you can fiddle with the actual height settings in the set selected track heights action dialog. You will need SWS installed, though.

Create a custom action to save track selection, select all, run the script then restore track selection.

I use this solution too. Works fine mapped to hotkeys as well.

Thanks for answers, guys.

.

I found answer about SWS helpful
and I opened for myself SWS toggle track height A/B
and "SWS command parameters" where can be specified tracks height A/B
(also workable: SWS: Store/Recall selected tracks heights).

.

Ironically, but
cfillion_Reset TCP height of selected tracks to default
doesn't work with all tracks selected.

.

Sad that (in custom action) still necessary actions save track selection / select all tracks / restore track selection, which makes "blink" of tracks selection,

^ so, it's still preferable to make (desired action of default height all tracks) on script's "level" (as script)

but it's not as laggy as minimze tracks + vertical zoom that I had before.

Wouldn't be the case with my solution above...It's instant and doesn't depend on selection.

Can't duplicate here: creating 8 tracks, changing the heights of each, selecting a random track, then running that custom action correctly resets the height of all tracks in the project here (REAPER 6.79 and 5.99). Got steps to duplicate a bug starting from a blank project?

This can be solved by creating a SWS Cycle Action instead of a REAPER Custom Action. Cycle Actions have a "Prevent UI refresh" option for this.

(Also this "blink" thing is a Windows-only issue)

That's perfect. I didn't know abut this feature.

Hm, now I can't recreate this.
ATM "cfillion_Reset TCP height of selected tracks to default" (with all tracks selected) minimizes all tracks size, which is probably default track size.
But where is it specified? In Reaper's preferences or somewhere else?
I tried different settings at "Default track height in new projects",
but I use template, so it always creates minimized size new tracks.

Hm, even with "New project tab (ignore default template)" Reaper creates and script makes minimized size tracks.

Hm... Ctrl+Scroll defines it?..
It can be changed/"broken" at any moment.

Try adding this line at the end of the script to also reset the project's vertical zoom to the one set in REAPER's preferences:

reaper.SNM_SetDoubleConfigVar('vzoom3', reaper.SNM_GetIntConfigVar('defvzoom', 6))

(REAPER 6.76 or newer only)
(If it solves the problem I'll release that as a separate script)

[ARkaine2]

local UNDO_STATE_TRACKCFG = 1
local I_HEIGHTOVERRIDE = 'I_HEIGHTOVERRIDE'
local SCRIPT_NAME = ({reaper.get_action_context()})[2]:match("([^/\\_]+)%.lua$")

local didSomething = false

for i=0,reaper.CountSelectedTracks(0)-1 do
local track = reaper.GetSelectedTrack(0, i)

if reaper.GetMediaTrackInfo_Value(track, I_HEIGHTOVERRIDE) > 0 then
if not didSomething then
reaper.Undo_BeginBlock()
didSomething = true
end

reaper.SetMediaTrackInfo_Value(track, I_HEIGHTOVERRIDE, 0)
end
end

if didSomething then
reaper.Undo_EndBlock(SCRIPT_NAME, UNDO_STATE_TRACKCFG)
reaper.TrackList_AdjustWindows(true)
else
reaper.defer(function() end)
reaper.SNM_SetDoubleConfigVar('vzoom3', reaper.SNM_GetIntConfigVar('defvzoom', 6))
end

it's strange, but it works only after click on tracks.
I mean that:
I can select or unselect all / any of tracks,
but the script affects only after (mouse) click on track after using it (this script).

I mean that: in any way it's necessary to:
1. use cfillion_Reset TCP height of selected tracks to default.lua
2. click on track (even if tracks were selected before cfillion_Reset TCP height of selected tracks to default.lua).

[cfillion]

In that location it only activates if there are no tracks in the project with a non-default height.

It needs to be at the every end of the script. After the word 'end':

if didSomething then
  reaper.Undo_EndBlock(SCRIPT_NAME, UNDO_STATE_TRACKCFG)
  reaper.TrackList_AdjustWindows(true)
else
  reaper.defer(function() end)
end

reaper.SNM_SetDoubleConfigVar('vzoom3', reaper.SNM_GetIntConfigVar('defvzoom', 6))

[ARkaine2]

Probably that's "my own" bug, but sometimes/often/each time during track resize happens that tracks resizing to normal/default/medium size after minimizing requires additional action about move selection / zoom / click track etc.

So, if combine (in custom actions) something like:

Script: cfillion_Reset TCP height of selected tracks to default.lua
+
Go to Next/Previous Track

^ It works fine.
