Resources: more "previous/next slot" actions

From pyt...@yahoo.com on June 15, 2012 00:41:39

Hi Guys,

Nice update! The next/previous actions work real well.

One thing I think the image window could use is an option to show the name of the currently loaded image and slot number too, perhaps in the title bar.

Was also wondering if you could please add the actions listed below under Requested Actions:?

First: I know it's a lot of actions to add, basically it's next/previous slot actions for "almost" all slot types. By using combinations of these in either custom actions or Cycle actions a huge world of custome enviroments can be setup and utilized rapidly. The possibilities are quite mind-boggling!

Here is a quick synopsis: By utilizing the newly added next/previous Image slot actions along with any of the following actions a user could have a visual reference of multiple aspects of REAPER such as (tracks, items, FX chains, track or project templates, even themes) and link these with various audition or open/import actions. Which allows for an audio and visual preview.., which in turn allows the user to rapidly mix and match and test all sorts of setups/ideas.

If you guys add the actions I'll do the testing and create some good example tutorials. I really think this will turn the Resorces dialog into a hyper-tool. :)

Requested Actions: SWS/S&M: Active MIDI Editor-Restore displayed CClanes, next slot. SWS/S&M: Active MIDI Editor-Restore displayed CClanes, previous slot. SWS/S&M: Add media file to current track, next slot. SWS/S&M: Add media file to current track, previous slot. SWS/S&M: Add media file to selected items as takes, next slot.

SWS/S&M: Play media file in selected tracks(sync with next measure), next slot. SWS/S&M: Play media file in selected tracks(sync with next measure), previous slot. SWS/S&M: Play media file in selected tracks, next slot. SWS/S&M: Play media file in selected tracks, previous slot. SWS/S&M: Set track icon for selected tracks, next slot. SWS/S&M: Set track icon for selected tracks, previous slot.

Also if the actions that deal with Save/Restore of Loop/Time selections could get a page in the Resources dialog drop down then this would open up even more possibilities.

If you have any questions or would like some examples of the usage just let me know.., I can provide many, many useful examples. :)

Thank you,

Anton
