Default How to move item to specific time?

Hi,

I am looking for a script that will move items (audio or MIDI) to a time (or bar/beat) location specified in a dialog box. So, for example, I select a MIDI media item and want to move it the start or to 00:00:15 or 4.1.0 - I'd select the item, invoke the key command, enter the time/location I wanted it moved to in a dialog box and the item would move there. I found this very useful in DP especially in long sessions where the target move location was off screen (saves lots of scrolling or repositioning).


I've seen lots of really useful move item actions/extensions but haven't found this one. I'd be grateful if someone could point me to a script that does this or another action/workflow that does something like this. I'm finding that I sometimes need to approach my workflow a little differently as I move to Reaper, but there's almost always a solution that's just as good or better than what I used in other DAWS.

Thanks!

Try pressing F2 (use the action "Item properties: Toggle show media item/take properties") and look at the top left corner for "Position".
