+ Ruler: add option to display region name when region start is offscreen

This looks excellent!





It even works with region anes so I dont think there is much edge cases to test for here. Seems all good!


Thx!

[Funkybot]

Agreed on the scrolling names. Very nice!

Haha, maybe you just not post it, so another person would format it (https://codepen.io/X-Raym/full/ggPogG) from the beginning?

That's for consistency.

This seems to fix the issue with the script that I posted in an earlier thread.

I have to gather leetpoints to gain priority on bug fixing...oh you weren't supposed to know that maybe

I was on the phone when I saw the update, it's not trivial formatting from there.
I saw a mod adjusted my post in the meanwhile.

This now works for custom actions, there's a Gist some time ago from Cfillion that I think proof-of-concept'ed something similar to this =)

https://gist.github.com/cfillion/335...d03b8dfe673c6e

/*

  hookcommand:
    Registers a hook which runs prior to every action in the main section:
      bool runCommand(int command, int flag);
      rec->Register("hookcommand",runCommand);
    runCommand() should return true if it processed the command (prevent further hooks or the action from running)
    It is OK to call Main_OnCommand() from runCommand(), but it must check for and handle any recursion.
  hookpostcommand:
    Registers a hook which runs after each action in the main section:
      void postCommand(int command, int flag);
      rec->Register("hookpostcommand",postCommand);
  hookcommand2:
    Registers a hook which runs prior to every action triggered by a key/MIDI event:
      bool onAction(KbdSectionInfo *sec, int command, int val, int val2, int relmode, HWND hwnd);
      rec->Register("hookcommand2",hook); \
    onAction returns true if it processed the command (preventing further hooks or actions from running)
      val/val2 are used for actions triggered by MIDI/OSC/mousewheel
        - val = [0..127] and val2 = -1 for MIDI CC,
        - val2 >=0 for MIDI pitch or OSC with value = (val2|(val<<7))/16383.0
        - relmode absolute(0) or 1/2/3 for relative adjust modes
  hookpostcommand2:
     void (*hook)(KbdSectionInfo *section, int actionCommandID, int val, int valhw, int relmode, HWND hwnd, ReaProject *proj);
     rec->Register("hookpostcommand2",hook);

+ API: GetSetProjectInfo_String() supports TRACK_GROUP_NAME

Nice! This has been requested very often and it's cool to see it in a dev

Thanks for listening to this user suggestion! Just tested and works wonderfully.

With this, C++ extensions can get a callback/notification when a (custom) action/ReaScript is run, this can be used to 'do something' if that happens (e.g. in case of cfillion's example, prevent UI refresh during custom actions execution. edit: That example was done to evaluate if this FR could be incorporated in SWS but in the end it was decided against it and only done for SWS cycle actions.).

API: GetSetProjectInfo_String() supports TRACK_GROUP_NAME

Does this allow us to detect via the API whether a particular group is enabled yet?

You'll notice that when I try to place the cursor on the first beat of the measure, it dissapears... I thought it had something to do with this fix, but probably I misunderstood it...

Nice work. This will prevent quite a bit of confusion. Thank you.

This version causes crash when closing a project tab With shortcut Cmd + W in a Mac. The project has 2 tracks with reasurroundpan plugins. Nothing else.


Here is a link to the crash report

Did some tests with the new User Columns in Media Explorer, working fine so far.

Thank you for the new region name display!

Can anyone tell me how to achieve this? Thanks.

I can't reproduce this unfortunately. Is it possible for you to post a very simple project that demonstrates?

Is this a thing? I need some points too.

I know you were only joking, but there's many a true word spoken in jest. It does feel like there's a club sometimes. Some users report something being, say, 1px out of alignment, it gets fixed. Others just see their bugs ending up down on page 58 of the bug report section, and falling.

Just my 2 cents (or $60?!?)

I'm sorry you have that impression, but there's really not!

If you create a bug report following the instruction, it will at least get the attention, so don't give up. Bump it, if you really need it to be fixed.

To be truly honest, lately I've been getting a bit frustrated because many things I reported seemed to be constantly neglected (like being invisible I know the feeling )

However I've found during the years that this helps quite a lot:

1) Report stuff more closely related to the focus of the current dev (branches, features, etc.)

2) Provide relevant material and information - licecaps, dump files, minimal test projects, config files and so on - to help to reproduce the issue as easily as possible

3) Hammer - a fair amount - the pre-release threads to remind when issues are not being addressed in the current dev iteration

What mentioned above, coupled with the severity of the issue, seems to play an important role in the efficiency of the find and fix process.

Of course, the leetpoint thing was a joke - sorry if anybody was harmed/hurt.

P.S. Maybe leetpoints are real and we simply don't know psssst...

I have leaped (leapt?) to your defence in this thread (post #5)

and got a couple of things off my chest at the same time

Noticed today that this is distractingly flickery when continuous scrolling is enabled. Maybe it could be temporarily hidden, like the item label counterpart.
