Default Order of videos in 2x2 matrix (FIXED)

Can we get a fix on the 2x2 input matrix preset so the grid order is the same as the track order? It's pretty confusing like this.




The 'grid of videos' preset does work right so I will use that for now

Code:
// 2x2 matrix - draws up to 4 videos from previous tracks
x=0;
loop(4,
  gfx_blit(input_track(x), 1 /* preserve aspect */,
           (x&1)?project_w*0.5:0, (x&2)?project_h*0.5:0, // position
           project_w*0.5,project_h*0.5 // output width and height
          );
  x += 1;
);
I have a version of the grid of videos that allows you to set a maximum number of video tracks to display and also skip a number of video tracks between each one displayed, if that could ever come in handy.

NP dude. Glad I could help.

If you want it fixed officially, maybe put it in Bug Reports?

Well it WAS wrong, and if anybody else notices, the fix is here for them.

Edit - I saw your post within minutes and would have had the fix for you right away if I had been home.

you didn't do anything wrong and I wasn't waiting for a fix. just wanted to make it known that it was wrong.

Honestly I think someone should have noticed this 5 years ago in the reaper 5 beta.


I have a pretty good workflow for multitrack video edits but the part I'm struggling with is making the install simple for others. While I'm recording the video I get the feeling no one is going to care.
