It would be great to have a keyboard shortcut to focus on the textbox. This tool would be awesome if it could be operated completely by keyboard.
Also I seem to be able to open many instances of the tools’s gui dialog. You should consider checking if the dialog is already open before creating a new instance.
I see. I guess a view.focus [boolean] or something similar should be put on the wishlist.
You could make a workaround, my suggestion is not preferred so I can’t recommend it. But I thought I’d put it out there incase you want to look into hacking some solution.
For a workaround you could work through key bindings of the dialog. The key bindings of the dialog could directly alter the textField.text value by adding the key character value to the textField.
Something similar to:
elseif (key.character ~= nil) then
textField.text = textField.text .. key.character
(not tested, but should give you an idea of what to do)
This way we’re managing control focus by ourselves using the focus and key bindings of the window (if you’re into MVC). Just a thought.
i have a question, is it possible to build a list inside with “important tracks” , like for example i have 8 tracks for drums 8 for strings and so on and than i could list the first of my “string tracks” to the list for my important tracks, than i could use them as a kind of markers, would be great for fast navigation, specially for people like him [Done 2.8] Collapsible Channel Grouping
great idea. track shortcuts/favorites/bookmarks/markers. indeed with the whole ‘i have 100 channels and am losing track (hahaha!)’ debate, which is kinda roaring up now, this tool is currently the most useful solution and would become more useful with this feature added.
