Exported functions wish-list (ReaScript)

[Jeff0S]

From jeffos...@gmail.com on September 16, 2012 12:03:05

Describe the function you want. Please try to keep things concise!
Entering the interface you want could be enough, for example:
bool RemoveReceive(MediaTrack* track, int rcvIdx);

If we have the code on stock, it will be easy to share it with you (especially if you see SWS actions that are close to your needs..).

hey Jeffos,
as you obviously do have good connections to Santa, i really would like to know how he deals with Midi-events.

So my top wishes would be to get/set all/selected midinotes/cc-events if that is possibble with the extension.

If not, im already more than happy with the stuff you did in the latest beta :)

Oh, maybe like mentioned in the pre thread, CFGEDIT and CFGEDITVIEW or Gofers wish to get/set the track junk

i really appreciate that you guys do care so much for the scripters :)
thx
V

hi V! this the plan :) I can't talk for him, but I know fingers has some cool dedicated MIDI stuff he could share, I also have sopme kind of "generic" tool to process state chunks that could be handy.. we just have to sort little things out before adding more funcs, will post about that in the forum.
oh! and thanks for reminding me the CFGEDIT/CFGEDITVIEW thing (I already forgot!)

Yay Jeffos that sounds awesome, you're the best. Reascript's midi future looking pretty rosy.
If you need some more feedback (non-OSX unfortuneately im here. For now i content myself spying your code (the uncommented one) and i like what you did there :)

Hi Jeffos,

Got the same wishes as "V". Looked a little at fingers stuff on the code page and I only found what seems to be advanced MIDI functions. What I need is basic ones which directly extracts from chunk the MIDI notes or CC or SYSEX. Something like:
string GetFromChunk(chunk, int itemPosInChunk, bool noteEvents, bool ccEvents, bool sysexEvents)
...and the reverse function to set the string in chunk after changes :
bool SetInChunk(chunk, int itemPosInChunk, string)

Thanks

I keep getting sidetracked on fixing my old shitty code :-) Will add a first pass at some MIDI functions soon.

Hello Jeffos,

I'm kind of new to REAscript.

I don't know if it's possible, but it would be uber useful to have function to change the preferences of REAPER.
I'm a big fan of SWS preferences toggles such as "Auto Add envelope in writing mode", and I would like to create my own REAPER scripts to set REAPER preferences "on the fly".

Hi Nim, you got such functions already:
+SNM_GetIntConfigVar()
+SNM_SetIntConfigVar()
+SNM_GetDoubleConfigVar()
+SNM_SetDoubleConfigVar()

Oups my bad, I didn't think it coule be that easy ! Works Great ...
So let's try another request ..

• Do you have some functions to ARM, VIS or BYPASS envelopes (by envelope IDs) ? I mean something that could be a shortcut to avoid to parse the thing ourself ?
• Do you have a function to create an envelope for a vst parameter (still by giving IDs) ?

Thanks !

Would it be possible to add function to delete FX in slot # ?

smth like int RemoveFX(MediaTrack* track, int FX Slot)

Also are the any extended functions of ShowMessageBox() where we can select our own name for the buttons?

hey Fingers,
just in case you missed issue 520 ..
thanks VERY much, all you stuff works a treat.

And here we go, i've already got a FR :)
Do you guys have something in the extension to take care about the midi-filter?

If you dont, i would like to suggest a second FNG_GetMidiNote() which obeys the filter. I have some dirty and quick tested python re. funcs which i am happy to share if that helps you out in any way to translate to C++. I attach a test script with this post.

thanks
V

@Nim
I will share a tool for this kind of chunk state processing (fast, handles corner cases for you, etc..). I just have some work to do on it first..

@Viente
I have some close code (for move selected fx up/down in chain actions", il will add something like SNM_MoveOrRemoveFX for you.
"Better ShowMessageBox()" I'm quite sure achieve that with python libs (?)

Thx Jeffos, FX functions would be awesome as there is so little control over it atm.

About better message box, Not sure about 3rd paty modules but built in TKinter module is damn unstable in Reaper. Sometime its so frustrating that you only need few buttons with your own names for a comprehensive script...

Hey Guys,

I'm having a lot of fun using;
SNM_GetIntConfigVar()
SNM_SetIntConfigVar()
SNM_GetDoubleConfigVar()
SNM_SetDoubleConfigVar()

So how about adding SNM_GetStrConfigVar(), and SNM_SetStrConfigVar() ?

Thanks

[Jeff0S]

From vientemu...@gmail.com on October 18, 2012 18:02:03

Thx for FX functions! Going to test (and donate) asap :)

Would really love to have functions for working with all the options found in the 'Item Properties' dialog.

[Jeff0S]

From jeffos...@gmail.com on November 28, 2012 06:21:11

@anton: SNM_GetStrConfigVar() and SNM_SetStrConfigVar() are not doable unfortunately (we can only access "sized" vars: int, double,.. string sizes are variable per definition). However, you can access general string prefs via RPR_get_ini_file() + some python INI file functions.

Status: Started

Some things I could use.

A script to change set the source channel and destination channel for send(x) of selected track. (creating new channels on the tracks if necessary.)

And to set the MIDI Bus and channel source destination of sends as well.

Is it possible for a function that detects whether a waveform peak is positive or negative? For example, in normalizing functions it takes into account the entire waveform, but I need a way for a reascript to do something based on JUST positive or JUST negative. An example script would be something like "set snap offset to highest positive peak" Thanks!
