Default Cycle action? Solved

In cycle action I tried making an action to turn on full screen if it is not on.

Basically this is what I tried, this is not exact. It doesn't work for some reason.

If not
Turn on full screen
End

There is an action 'toggle fullscreen', which does exactly what you want if I don't misread you post..?

I'm aware of that, I'm using the one you are referring to but also using "if not" to activate full screen when it is not active, I further place the cycle action in the global start command, this way it always starts in full screen when I start reaper. But it doesn't work as expected.
Thank you.

The toggle fullscreen action will always activate full screen if it is not currently full screen.

That is what I thought but if you had full screen active when you shut down reaper, the next time you start reaper it will go out of the full screen mode because I have it setup to run the full screen function every time reaper is started.

To the o/p, you need to put the toggle action twice

If NOT
[Toggle action]
[Toggle action]
End

You imply that there is a way to run actions automatically on startup. Is that possible?

@cutnpaste

Code:
--fullscreen LUA

function main()
 fullscreen =  reaper.GetToggleCommandState(40346)
  if fullscreen ==0 then 
    reaper.Main_OnCommand(40346, 0)    
    
  end
end

main()
This should work I think - attached


@Coachz search global in actions.

SWS startup actions. There's also __startup.{lua,eel}.
