unfold / fold  a track in hightlight navigation and navigate into group

Hello

I use 2 buttons to navigate in the tracks, one button which increments to move to the right in the tracks and another button to move to the right in the tracks

The problem is that when I position myself on a track with folder groups, the track does not ungroup
I can’t navigate the group’s tracks

Is it possible that once I position myself on a track the track ungroups and that I can navigate inside from right to left?

Thank you in advance for your response

Greetings

Hi,

I took a stab at making a Reaction with the requested features (unfolding + selecting the rightmost track of the Group) + I also added in the feature of folding/closing the Group whenever you select a Track that is not a part of that Group. Here are the notes, the same that you find inside the Reaction:

1) When navigating through Tracks, this Reaction will unfold a Group Track that is currently selected + select the Last Track in that Group

2) The Reaction will also fold the last Group Track that was unfolded (through the use of this Reaction) when the current highlighted Track is not a part of that Group.

IMPORTANT
When you have a First Group Track that contains a Second Group Track, this might mess up the second feature of this Reaction.
That’s because the Reaction only saves the Track numbers of the last Unfolded Group Track.
So, if you were to open the Second Group Track, it will effectively erase the Track numbers of the First Group Track from its memory, meaning the First Group Track won’t be closed again by this Reaction (you’ll have to do it manually).

If you do have Group Tracks inside of other Group Tracks, let me know and I’ll figure out a way to keep track of all the folding and unfolding that’s happening.

Hi Thanks for your help

I was able to test this reaction
But nothing happens when I am highlighted (highlighted track) on a track
I always navigate on the track folded or unfolder

I was also able to check that I had all the actions and commands that you shared with me in my script
The script is well recognized by ableton adding the reaction

I updated my question with an illustration of what exactly I want to do

Greetings
