Get marker names

[Airal]

Pretty easy for everything else but I only get 0 from param 6 in EnumProjectMarkers.

Any ideas?

Needs to be a string. You using Lua or EEL?


If it's Lua, pull this script apart from this thread, you'll see it read the marker names...



Version 3: "PL9-Project marker goto grid03" added defaults reset and font resizing adjustment by shift-mousewheel...




Sounds like a variable or syntax issue.

I made this Lua template for you :

ReaScripts-Templates/X-Raym_Loop in markers.lua at master · ReaTeam/ReaScripts-Templates

Hope it helps !

I'm using python. The examples don't work. EnumProjectMarkersN never returns the names.

e.g., simply

num_markers = RPR_EnumProjectMarkers2(0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)[7];

for i in range(0, 10):
name = "asdf";
#RPR_EnumProjectMarkers2(0, i, 0, 0, 0, name, 0);
name = RPR_EnumProjectMarkers3(0,i, 0, 0 ,0 ,0,0,0);
msg(name);

name(which is the array returned by EnumProjectMarkers) never shows any of the names of the actual markers.

e.g.,

(1, 0, 0, 0, 24.908339081582906, 0.0, 0, 1, 0)
(2, 0, 1, 0, 58.408478669154846, 0.0, 0, 2, 0)
(3, 0, 2, 0, 77.72032384316691, 0.0, 0, 3, 0)

yet the markers have names. Any ideas why this doesn't work in python?

I'm not sure as I abandoned Python for ReaScript quite early on (I use EEL and Lua).

There is a vague hint of a memory that it might be a bug, it's giving me a feeling of deja-vu thinking about this.


There are still some guys reasonably versed in Python, maybe someone else can help/confirm...

*Bump* Did this ever get resolved?

I've came across exactly the same issue..

bump. Any chance to get marker names in python?

Bug is still there. See https://forum.cockos.com/showpost.ph...40&postcount=9 for more details.

I have been able to get marker name using this fast string trick. Granted I have only done this with the usual EnumProjectMarkers, but it may still work with EnumProjectMarkersN too.

for i in range(markerNum):
    retval, tempID, isRgn, tempPos, _, _, num = RPR_EnumProjectMarkers(i, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)

    #gets the marker name
    fs = SNM_CreateFastString("")
    SNM_GetProjectMarkerName(0, num, isRgn, fs)
    tempName = SNM_GetFastString(fs)
    SNM_DeleteFastString(fs)

Oh man, thank you very much!!!!
