GetFocusedFX - itnum, fxnum.. takenum ??

me2beats · 02-01-2017, 05:45 AM

Today I wanted to finish my script Toggle bypass focused fx. It works for track fx but doesn't work with FX on items.
And I wanted to finish it and I started to write a code like this

Code:

retval, trnum, itnum, fxnum = r.GetFocusedFX()

if retval == 1 then -- track FX is focused
  tr = r.GetTrack(0,trnum-1)
  en = r.TrackFX_GetEnabled(tr, fxnum)
  r.TrackFX_SetEnabled(tr, fxnum, not en)
elseif retval == 2 then -- item FX is focused
  tr = r.GetTrack(0,trnum-1)
  item = r.GetTrackMediaItem( tr, itnum-1)

but wait..

I need to get the take right now and then use TakeFX_GetEnabled(take, fx) but
GetFocusedFX() doesn't return neither take nor take number what the freak?

Of course I can try track or item chunks but maybe there's a better way.

Got it, extending this API for 5.34pre1, it will include the take number as the high 16 bits of fxnum.

The help file has not been updated to reflect the change.

The ReaScript documentation on reaper.fm has not been updated since v5.0. Use the one generated by your local REAPER installation via the action ReaScript: Open ReaScript documentation (html) (also in the default Help menu) instead. It's always up to date and it also includes documentation for functions added by currently loaded extensions (such as SWS). X-Raym also made a prettier and searchable version of the docs here which he updates frequently.

If I am not mistaken, both these sources are not updated regarding this function

Both the Help menu documentation and X-Raym's page mention it:

If item FX, fxnumber will have the high word be the take index, the low word the FX index.

Ooops... My mistake! :S... So, how can I get this info from fxnumber in eel?

Could GetFocusedFX be updated once more so that it worked with the input FX chain too? Thanks!
