I'm using this code (within a larger script) to select all tracks in a session and open all folders.
try {
sf.ui.proTools.invalidate()
sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.tables.whoseTitle.is("Group List").first.childrenByRole("AXRow").first.childrenByRole('AXCell').first.buttons.first.elementClick();
log('All folders opened.');
} catch (error) {
log(`Error opening all folders: ${error}`);
throw error; // Abort the script
}
Sometimes, more than I'd like, it throws the error below. Is this a bug, or is there another method to approach this?
Error opening all folders: Error: ClickButtonAction

Raphael Sepulveda @raphaelsepulveda2024-09-23 16:08:55.004ZHey @Forrester_Savell, sometimes interacting with the group elements fails if the Tracks/Groups pane is too narrow. Next time you get the error try making the pane wider and see if that does anything.
If not, here's a short script that does the same thing:
const tracks = sf.app.proTools.tracks.invalidate().allItems; const trackNames = tracks.map(track => track.name); const folderTrackNames = tracks .filter(track => ["BasicFolder", "RoutingFolder"].includes(track.type)) .map(track => track.name); // Open all Folder tracks sf.app.proTools.setTrackOpenState({ trackNames: folderTrackNames, enabled: true }); // Select all tracks in session sf.app.proTools.selectTracksByName({ trackNames });
