Configuration

The actions file contains reaper-keys action definitions.

If a reaper-keys action does not exist for a reaper command you want to create a binding for, you may add an entry into this file. You just need to come up with a name for the action and get it’s command id (available in reapers action list).

Here is an example entry that creates the reaper-keys action SelectFoldersChildren that contains the command id of the SWS command to select a folders children.

SelectFoldersChildren = "_SWS_SELCHILDREN2",

Reaper-keys actions may also be a sequence of command id’s, reaper-key action names, provided ‘lib’ functions, provided ‘custom’ functions, or any combination of them.

Here is a variety of action definitions that demonstrate this functionality.

SelectOnlyCurrentTrack = custom.select.onlyCurrentTrack,
UnselectItems = 40289,
UnselectEnvelopePoints = 40331,
UnselectAllEvents = {40214, midiCommand=true},
ResetSelection = {"SelectOnlyCurrentTrack", "UnselectItems", "UnselectEnvelopePoints", "UnselectAllEvents"},
Stop = 40667,
SetModeNormal = lib.setModeNormal,
SetRecordModeNormal = 40252,
Reset = {"Stop", "SetModeNormal", "SetRecordModeNormal", "ResetSelection"},
