Hmmm...

Looks like we have a design limitation, but need your help in determining if it is actually a problem.

If you want to have your FX activated by OnTrackSelection your .zon file looks like:

Code:
Zone "VST: ReaComp (Cockos)"
SelectedTrackNavigator
Threshold FXParam Thresh
Character FXParam Gain
Attack FXParam Attack
Release FXParam Release
Ratio FXParam Ratio
Compressor FXParam Bypass
Parallel FXParam Wet
CompressorMeter FXParam GainReductionDB
ZoneEnd
If you want to have your FX activated by OnFXFocus your .zon file looks like:

Code:
Zone "VST: ReaComp (Cockos)"
FocusedFXTrackNavigator
Threshold FXParam Thresh
Character FXParam Gain
Attack FXParam Attack
Release FXParam Release
Ratio FXParam Ratio
Compressor FXParam Bypass
Parallel FXParam Wet
CompressorMeter FXParam GainReductionDB
ZoneEnd
An FX can either be activated by the SelectedTrack or the Focused FX method, but not both.

You could have another folder with duplicated FX Zone files -- the only difference being the type of Navigator.

Then you could have 2 Pages, each one with a different flavour of Activation.

Can anyone think of a use case where you would want a particular Surface or a particular FX on a particular Page to easily switch methods on the fly ?
