Yo bud,

So yes this is working as intended. -- And as intended is not ideal. The first problem being the check and paste aspect of the script is actually just a rip of this script here - Move clip to specified track - if partial or full overwrite move to next track - because the original script was moving an already existing file, the way this version is scripted creates a group on your currently selected track before moving it around. Obviously if your currently selected track has regions and or files on it those will get grouped in and moved... not ideal. At the time I couldn't warp my head around unpacking that script to get the pieces I needed out, I think I can now... The second issue as noted in the documentation for the script - the original script also fails if the cue is the exact same length, it will overwrite, so if you're doing multiple fulls scene cues, i've 'hacked it' to do a one frame shift so you can continue to cue full length scenes. Once again.. not really an ideal workflow.

TBH I've pretty much abandoned use of this script myself in favor of a 2 button solution while on my group tracks because I realized this wasn't really helping me personally anymore. I press a 'select scene' button and then use the https://soundflow.org/store/pkg/pro-tools-spotting App to create a cue.

I'd love to take the time to build this template back from the ground up, I do have the code to be able to pull the scene track name to include in your cue (I'll include it below). I'd also like to change the choice arrays from fixed preset list to a json list that every time you enter a new one it then loads into the list for quick access the following time.

Here's get current clip name so you could select the scene track then grab the clip name to include in the new cue.

function getCurrentClipName() { //This gets the current region name in Pro Tools

    const clipNameWin = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first
    try {
        clearFind();
        sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({ menuPath: ['Clip', 'Rename...'] }, `could not find rename window`);
        clipNameWin.elementWaitFor({ onError: "Continue" });
        let currentClipName = clipNameWin.groups.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.textFields.first.value.invalidate().value;
        clipNameWin.buttons.whoseTitle.is('Cancel').first.elementClick({}, `could not click Rename window: cancel button`);
        return currentClipName
    } catch (err) {
        throw `error in getCurrentClipNameWin(): ${err}`
    }
}
