Julian again I need a little assistance this time for OSX...

Unlike before V6 core reaper changes (track UI changes), now the script detects tracks out of the box, which was not the case before (did not detect them since tracks Y position was calculated via JS_API.

So this is only a matter of inverting the coordinates then?

This is the main and only function that stores all tracks coordinates and the rest of the script just reads it, so I assume it only needs modification here in order to work with OSX:

Code:
local TBH
function GetTracksXYH()
   TBH = {}
   local _, x_view_start, y_view_start, x_view_end, y_view_end = reaper.JS_Window_GetRect(track_window)
   -- ONLY ADD MASTER TRACK IF VISIBLE IN TCP
   if reaper.GetMasterTrackVisibility() == 1 then
      local master_tr = reaper.GetMasterTrack(0)
      local m_tr_h = reaper.GetMediaTrackInfo_Value(master_tr, "I_TCPH")
      local m_tr_t = reaper.GetMediaTrackInfo_Value(master_tr, "I_TCPY") + y_view_start
      local m_tr_b = m_tr_t + m_tr_h
      TBH[master_tr] = {t = m_tr_t, b = m_tr_b, h = m_tr_h} 
   end
   for i = 1, reaper.CountTracks(0) do
      local tr = reaper.GetTrack(0, i - 1)
      local tr_h = reaper.GetMediaTrackInfo_Value(tr, "I_TCPH")
      local tr_t = reaper.GetMediaTrackInfo_Value(tr, "I_TCPY") + y_view_start
      local tr_b = tr_t + tr_h
      TBH[tr] = {t = tr_t, b = tr_b, h = tr_h}
      for j = 1, reaper.CountTrackEnvelopes(tr) do
         local env = reaper.GetTrackEnvelope(tr, j - 1)
         local env_h = reaper.GetEnvelopeInfo_Value(env, "I_TCPH")
         local env_t = reaper.GetEnvelopeInfo_Value(env, "I_TCPY") + tr_t
         local env_b = env_t + env_h
         TBH[env] = {t = env_t, b = env_b, h = env_h}
      end
   end
end
My brain is little stuck ATM what am I supposed to do? Subtract track top and bot with the height of the window?

and btw this is the drawing code in case I need to add something here also:
Code:
function Element:draw()
  local _, x_view_start, y_view_start = reaper.JS_Window_GetRect(track_window)
  reaper.JS_Composite(track_window, self.x - x_view_start, self.y - y_view_start, self.w, self.h, self.bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
  refresh_reaper()
end
where self.y is just tr_t

EDIT:
Figured I need to reverse the track bottom
Code:
tr_b = tr_t - tr_h
right now everything is "fine" tracks are exactly on same pixels as the mouse is, coordinates now match. But where is the problem? What API expects "normal" in this case "inverted" coordinates? I guess mouse also needs to be inverted?

EDIT:
I really hope there is some simple solution to this, because I've modified a lot of calculating code and inverted lots of things to many functions to get right coordinates but still got nowhere

The main problem is that all of my functions and important variables are all inverted. My top variables are bottom, bottom is top, then I have other calculations to inverse that in case you start drawing from bottom up instead of top to bottom.

I need some starting point because I'm a little bit scared of modifying 50% of the script to not brake things.

I hope we can modify only the main function that gets all the coordinates and stores them if we can modify only it

Well some progress,its not drawing but its getting all the information under it, and now keys do not work??

I'm not getting ANY respond from keys I press (from script)

Code:
-- FOR WINDOWS
for i = 1, 255 do
   local func
   local name = string.char(i)
   if type(tonumber(name)) == "number" then
      func = select_as
   end
   if i == 16 then
      name = "Shift"
   elseif i == 17 then
      name = "Ctrl"
   elseif i == 18 then
      name = "Alt"
   elseif i == 13 then
      name = "Return"
   elseif i == 8 then
      name = "Backspace"
   elseif i == 32 then
      name = "Space"
   elseif i == 20 then
      name = "Caps-Lock"
   elseif i == 27 then
      name = "ESC"
      func = remove
   elseif i == 9 then
      name = "TAB"
   elseif i == 192 then
      name = "~"
   elseif i == 91 then
      name = "Win"
   elseif i == 45 then
      name = "Insert"
   elseif i == 46 then
      name = "Del"
      func = del
   elseif i == 36 then
      name = "Home"
   elseif i == 35 then
      name = "End"
   elseif i == 33 then
      name = "PG-Up"
   elseif i == 34 then
      name = "PG-Down"
   end
   Key_TB[#Key_TB + 1] = Key:new({i}, name, func)
end
This is how I fill the table with all the keys, it should at least return letters and numbers but keyboard is not responding at all (script)

https://github.com/GoranKovac/ReaScr...a_51_input.lua

UPDATE 2:
It seems something is wrong with drawing also, cannot seem to get anything on the screen even manually entering coordinates:

Code:
track_window = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(reaper.GetMainHwnd(), 0x3E8) -- all platforms
function Element:draw()
  reaper.JS_Composite(track_window, 400, 400, 400, 400, self.bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
  refresh_reaper()
end
This should draw fixed rectangle when I make first area but its not drawing anything.

The current status is that that script gets all the data, it draws "invisible" areas and all the info is there, all the tables are filled but:
1. Cannot draw anything on screen
2. Keys do not work

The method in the link that nofish posted is usually the best solution, and requires no arithmetic or different code for macOS:

* Some functions use or return *screen* coordinates, such as GetMousePosition, JS_Window_FromPoint, GetTrackFromPoint and GetItemFromPoint. These coordinates differ between Windows/Linux and macOS.

* Others use *client* coordinates, such as the LICE drawing functions, or GetMediaTrackInfo_Value(track, "I_TCPY"). These are the same between Windows /Linux and macOS.

I suggest that you only use screen coordinates when getting the mouse position and the track under the mouse. Then convert to client coordinates to do all the rest.

@sexan
When you have a lot of elseif statemebt like that,
consider just using a simple associative table
Code:
name = names[i]
where names is a table containing all your indexes and value.


This way it doesnt have to test everything :P

I have them like this because string.char returns empty string for those keys

Code:
if string.char(i) == "" then
  name = blabla
else
 name = names[i]
end
still way more efficient :]


But this is micro optimization, not very important at least not in this thread.

I cannot draw anything, even with manually entering coordinates...

Code:
track_window = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(reaper.GetMainHwnd(), 0x3E8) -- all platforms
function Element:draw()
  reaper.JS_Composite(track_window, 400, 400, 400, 400, self.bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
  refresh_reaper()
end
This modification works on windows so I assume it will also work with other platforms but I still cannot draw anything on OSX

Code:
track_window = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(reaper.GetMainHwnd(), 0x3E8) -- all platforms
function Element:draw()
  local cx,cy = reaper.JS_Window_ScreenToClient(track_window,self.x,self.y)
  reaper.JS_Composite(track_window, cx, cy, self.w, self.h, self.bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
  refresh_reaper()
end
Its drawing INVISIBLE areas and it collects all the data from it correctly. So everything works except drawing (ATM at least) regarding data.
Still not sure why I do not get any response from Keyboard. Does OSX need any addition in order for JS_VKeys_GetState to work?

Warning re OSX: Users of my MIDI scripts have discovered a bug in REAPER's functions for blitting transparent images on OSX. If the Metal graphics API is enabled (mostly Mojave and later, but also some older systems), alpha blending is not performed, so the blitted images are fully opaque.

Unfortunately, Justin warned that it may be difficult to implement, so I'm not sure when it will be fixed. Anyone interested may track the progress in the bug report thread: WDL/swell on OSX: BitBlt and StretchBlt: SRCCOPY_USEALPHACHAN not working.

Which keys are you trying to detect? As mentioned in the API documentation, mouse buttons and modifier keys are not reliably detected by the VKeys functions, and Mouse_GetState should be used instead.

In the case of WindowsOS, VKeys should detect modifier keys, but in the case of Linux and macOS, I haven't figured out a way to detect them.

We can submit a feature request for REAPER to send modifier keys to the keyboard hook.

The general problem is as I've mentioned above I cannot draw anything even manually entering coordinates. Nothing is drawing on screen. Regarding keys you can check my Area_51_input class script and its not returning ANY key not modifiers,nothing.

I'm really sorry for bothering you but I just don't understand the osx.I got one to try to fix the problem but I cant get anything to work. I have all the data so coordinates are correct because the script is working but its not drawing and keys are not working.

Is there a way to know if a window is floating or not ? and pinned ?



Also simple question, what is the funciton to get a windowHWND from simple ID (and not a reaper object) ?

If you mean, Is window a floating plugin window or a FX Chain window? then since the window styles seem to be identical then Id' check if window has one or more specific controls on it, for example the fx chain window has a ListView control but floating plugin windows don't.

Is it only the Area51 script that doesn't draw composites, or does the function not work at all? For example, does this barebones script draw anything?

Code:
bm = reaper.JS_LICE_CreateBitmap(true, 1, 1)
reaper.JS_LICE_Clear(bm, 0xFFFF0000)
tv = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(reaper.GetMainHwnd(), 1000)
cOK = reaper.JS_LICE_Composite(tv, 100, 100, 100, 100, bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
reaper.JS_Window_InvalidateRect(tv, 100, 100, 200, 200, false)

I tested VKeys_GetState and Mouse_GetState and both seemed to work fine on my OSX High Sierra x64. To my pleasant surprise, VKeys_GetState even returned modifier keys, so perhaps the bug that I mentioned before has been fixed without me noticing (or remembering?) it.

I took a look at the Area51 script, and I can confirm that it doesn't draw anything on my OSX system (when I hold Cmd+Shift+leftdrag), but unfortunately the script is far too long and complex for me to make head or tails of it. Do you perhaps have a minimal example of a script that doesn't get keyboard inputs and doesn't draw anything?

The script did crash a few times while I tested it, and I had to use the "Panic" script to remove the keyboard intercepts before I could type again. I would recommend that you use pcall throughout the script, so that if the script encounters an error, it can gracefully remove all intercepts and terminate, instead of just crashing.

That barebone script draws nothing (you entered some API wrong btw). I done this exact thing in my script the code is above (but it would draw it when area is made) and nothing

Code:
bm = reaper.JS_LICE_CreateBitmap(true, 1, 1)
reaper.JS_LICE_Clear(bm, 0xFFFF0000)
tv = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(reaper.GetMainHwnd(), 0x3E8)
cOK = reaper.JS_Composite(tv, 100, 100, 100, 100, bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
reaper.JS_Window_InvalidateRect(tv, 100, 100, 200, 200, false)
Atleast JS_LICE_COMPOSE does not exist on my end or anywhere in API

OSX High Siera

In the Main() loop there is check_keys() function that calls the Input script, if you press any key it should appear in de IDE as a table.

For drawing the function is in the class script() - Element:draw()

Thats the only call for compositing, anywhing you put there it will draw (if you actually draw first area). but there I set coordinates manually so it should draw things no matter what are Area coordinates. But since this above does not work do not know whats the issue.

Regarding keys - when you call track_keys() which is in the check_keys() function it should return a key you pressed as a table (which you can see in IDE since its global)

I will make a minimal script that does keys and drawing

If you want to exclude docked windows try JS_Window_FindTop and JS_Window_ArrayAllTop.

                                   end
                                   return start
                                   end
This function is made so you can set combination of keys to act as one key/action. For example :

Code:
Key_TB[#Key_TB + 1] = Key:new({17, 67}, "COPY", copy_mode, true) -- COPY (TOGGLE)
I you make a key like this you are putting two keys together in this case its : 17 - CTRL and 67 - C

The function above waits for both keys to be true in order to return the value:




This is just whole input class together with key call from main script.

The exact same thing you need to see in AreaScript, keys show like this in IDE.
Again this works on windows but its not working on OSX

Regarding drawing its in Area_51_Class script and its only this function.
Code:
function Element:draw()
  local cx,cy = reaper.JS_Window_ScreenToClient(track_window,self.x,self.y)
  reaper.JS_Composite(track_window, cx, cy, self.w, self.h, self.bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
  refresh_reaper()
end
It reads the area tables and draws

what is the funciton to get a windowHWND from simple ID
Control window handle? Shouldn't be any different then done in reaper, you got handle of window the control is on and pass the control ID to get the controls handle...

Code:
control_hwnd = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(hwnd, ID)

This basically does same thing,..
Code:
function Main()
  -- Get Control ID under mouse (top-level window)
  x,y = reaper.GetMousePosition()
  hwnd = reaper.JS_Window_FromPoint(x,y)
  hid = reaper.JS_Window_GetLongPtr(hwnd, "ID") 
  id = reaper.JS_Window_AddressFromHandle(hid)
  reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(tostring(id) .. "\n")
  reaper.defer(Main)
end
Main()

Sorry about the typo. With the corrected "JS_Composite" function name, does it *not* draw a colored square on the trackview?

If you go to Preferences -> Advanced UI/system tweaks -> Display Updates, and set it to "Force Classic", does it make any difference?

No its not drawing anything

Code:
bm = reaper.JS_LICE_CreateBitmap(true, 1, 1)
reaper.JS_LICE_Clear(bm, 0xFFFF0000)
tv = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(reaper.GetMainHwnd(), 0x3E8) -- EVEN CHANGED THIS FROM 1000 SINCE ITS NOT CROSS-PLATFORM
cOK = reaper.JS_Composite(tv, 100, 100, 100, 100, bm, 0, 0, 1, 1)
reaper.JS_Window_InvalidateRect(tv, 100, 100, 200, 200, false) -- EVEN IF THIS IS COMMENTED OUT

Yep same here. Nothing is being drawn. OSX High Sierra here.

EDIT, sorry, was wrong. The gfx was hidden behind the action window:

This is very strange, and I have no idea it isn't working on your system. The other macOS users that encountered problems with compositing see opaque graphics, while you see nothing. I wonder if your system truly fails to composite, or whether it makes the bitmap fully transparent -- analogous to how the bitmap becomes fully opaque on other users' Macs

Given that even the barebones script doesn't draw anything on your system, I suspect that the reason why the Area51 script isn't drawing anything either, is not a bug in the Area51 script.

Moreover, the fact that you can't get keyboard input, makes me wonder if something has gone awry with your installation or with the dylib.

Could you test keyboard input by running this script, and checking the value of "key" in the IDE while you pre?

Code:
function loop()
    key = reaper.JS_VKeys_GetState(t or -1):find("\1") or key
    t = reaper.time_precise()
    reaper.defer(loop)
end
loop()
You can try checking the return value of JS_Composite for errors, and well as the list of linked bitmaps, using JS_Composite_ListBitmaps, to see if the bitmap was truly linked.

How could I get the list of items in a combox?

Code:
wnd = reaper.JS_Window_Find( "Theme element finder", false )
combo = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID( wnd, 1001 )
count = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send( combo, "CB_GETCOUNT", 0, 0, 0, 0 )
I guess by using reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send "CB_GETLBTEXT" but how exactly?

Not sure if the API has been updated since I tried that (post 249), but I ended up doing it like,..

Code:
itemCount = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combo, "CB_GETCOUNT", 0,0,0,0 )
cur_index = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combo, "CB_GETCURSEL", 0,0,0,0) -- save current index
for i = 0, itemCount-1 do 
  reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combo, "CB_SETCURSEL", i, 0,0,0)
  t[#t+1] = reaper.JS_Window_GetTitle(combo,"") -- save item text to table
end
reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combo, "CB_SETCURSEL", cur_index, 0,0,0) -- restore index
Odd thing is, I can't get the handle to that ComboBox or any of the children on that window, I got combobox handle from SPY++ to test that code.

Is there any way to set the minimum size of a window?
It can get quite tiny (window style is "WS_BORDER"):

I tried to do the same with a ListBox but it didn't work. Any idea why? Is there any other way?


Code:
t = {}
wnd =  reaper.JS_Window_Find( "Theme development/tweaker", true )
listbox = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID( wnd, 1209 )
itemCount = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, "LB_GETCOUNT", 0,0,0,0 )
cur_index = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, "LB_GETCURSEL", 0,0,0,0) -- save current index
for i = 0, itemCount-1 do 
  reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, "LB_SETCURSEL", i, 0,0,0)
  t[#t+1] = reaper.JS_Window_GetTitle(listbox,"") -- save item text to table
end
reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, "LB_SETCURSEL", cur_index, 0,0,0) -- restore index

I'm pretty sure only way to read listbox item text is to use the LB_ messages and I don't think this extension has them defined so you'll have to add them , most of the LB_ msg I tried seem to work except LB_GETTEXTLEN, it returns a much higher value then the actual text lengths, so I guess as long as its not smaller it should be OK. , this seems to be working, but I'm just VB coder and normally don't use pointers, so assume I'm using JS_Mem_Alloc correctly?

Tested on listbox in Actions un-docked window,..

Code:
LB_GETTEXT = '0x189' -- API (as of v0.998) doesn't have LB_* messages defined.
LB_GETCOUNT = '0x18B'
LB_GETTEXTLEN = '0x18A'

actions = reaper.JS_Window_FindTop('Actions', true)
listbox = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(actions, 0x531) -- assigned shortcuts listbox in Actions window.
itemCount = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, LB_GETCOUNT, 0,0,0,0)

for i = 0, itemCount-1 do 
  bufSize = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, LB_GETTEXTLEN, i,0,0,0)
  m = reaper.JS_Mem_Alloc(bufSize)
  txt_len = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, LB_GETTEXT, i, 0, reaper.JS_Window_AddressFromHandle(m),0)
  retval, item_txt = reaper.JS_String(m, 0, txt_len)
  reaper.JS_Mem_Free(m)
  reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(item_txt..'\n')
end
From MSDN, LB_GETTEXTLEN message
Quote:
Under certain conditions, the return value is larger than the actual length of the text. This occurs with certain mixtures of ANSI and Unicode, and is due to the operating system allowing for the possible existence of double-byte character set (DBCS) characters within the text. The return value, however, will always be at least as large as the actual length of the text; you can thus always use it to guide buffer allocation. This behavior can occur when an application uses both ANSI functions and common dialogs, which use Unicode.

To obtain the exact length of the text, use the WM_GETTEXT, LB_GETTEXT, or CB_GETLBTEXT messages, or the GetWindowText function.
So looks like were OK!

Another possible way, this doesn't change the combo index like the other code. Tested on 'presets' combobox of a floating ReaEQ FX window...

Code:
 floatVST = reaper.JS_Window_FindTop('VST: ReaEQ (Cockos)', false) -- floatng FX window
 if not floatVST then return end
 container = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(floatVST, 0) -- combobox is inside child window
 combobox = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID(container, 0x3E8) -- FX 'Presets' combobox
 itemCount = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combobox, "CB_GETCOUNT", 0,0,0,0)

 for i = 0, itemCount-1 do
   bufSize = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combobox, "CB_GETLBTEXTLEN", i ,0,0,0) 
   m = reaper.JS_Mem_Alloc(bufSize)
   txt_len = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(combobox, "CB_GETLBTEXT", i, 0, reaper.JS_Window_AddressFromHandle(m) ,0)
   retval, item_txt = reaper.JS_String(m, 0, txt_len)
   reaper.JS_Mem_Free(m)
   reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(item_txt..'\n')
 end

Quick question regarding my usage of the following code:

Code:
if reaper.JS_VKeys_GetState( 0 ):byte(hotkey[a].key) ~= 0 then
It works just fine to intercept key-presses from almost every window in REAPER, except the mixer.

Is there a way to combat this?

Hmm.. Doesn't seem to work with the ListBox of the Theme development/tweaker.. :/


Code:
local LB_GETTEXT, LB_GETCOUNT,LB_GETTEXTLEN  = '0x189', '0x18B', '0x18A'
t = {}
local wnd =  reaper.JS_Window_Find( "Theme development/tweaker", true )
local listbox = reaper.JS_Window_FindChildByID( wnd, 1209 )
itemCount = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, LB_GETCOUNT, 0,0,0,0)
for i = 0, itemCount-1 do 
  local bufSize = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, LB_GETTEXTLEN, i,0,0,0)
  local m = reaper.JS_Mem_Alloc(bufSize)
  txt_len = reaper.JS_WindowMessage_Send(listbox, LB_GETTEXT, i, 0, reaper.JS_Window_AddressFromHandle(m),0)
  retval, item_txt = reaper.JS_String(m, 0, txt_len)
  reaper.JS_Mem_Free(m)
  t[#t+1] = item_txt
  reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(item_txt..'\n')
end

It returns 'chinese'..

Sorry no clue, don't have 'Theme development/tweaker' window either but take your word for it. Maybe one of the guru's could clue us in on whats going on.

Was testing on Win10(US English), REAPER v6.03/x64.

Thanks for the help Edgemeal!



That is the window that tweaks the colors of a theme.


Theme development: Show theme tweak/configuration window, action 41930


Win10(US English), REAPER v6.03/x64 here too.

Edit.. Actually what is returned is not 'chinese'.. it's all the the characters of the keyboard..

Could you elaborate? (Do you mean that when the mixer is in the foreground, GetState does not detect any key strokes?)

You can perhaps check the window size in every defer cycle, and then resize whenever the size is too small.

Alternatively, use a window style that does not allow resizing.
