Default create folder from selected tracks

would it be possible to select tracks and create a folder from them via shortcut?

I tried

SWS: Make folder from selected tracks

but this change the first track to a folder.

Would it be possible to add a new folder track with all tracks selected nested?

thank you

cant you just make a new empty track at the top of the tracks you want in a folder, highlight all of them so the new, top, empty track becomes the folder track via the sws thing?

I just modified Lokasenna's script to not require the entry of a name for the parent track. If you find it useful, donate to them.

I have created an action for this and use it all the time. If you don't want to name your new folder track right away just edit the action.

mine is similar

Custom: Put Selected Tracks Under New Track Folder
SWS: Save current track selection
SWS: Insert track above selected tracks
SWS: Restore saved track selection
Xenakios/SWS: Select previous tracks, keeping current selection
SWS: Make folder from selected tracks
Track: Set first selected track as last touched track
Track: Rename last touched track
