Pro Tools 2023.6 - "Target Track for Markers" button

@Mix7, give this a try. Just provide the name of the track at the bottom:

function selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name }) {
    const track = sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name }).track;
    const trackMarkerTargetButton = track.groups.whoseTitle.is("Markers View").first
        .buttons.whoseTitle.is("Target Track for Markers").first

    track.trackSelect();

    if (trackMarkerTargetButton.exists && trackMarkerTargetButton.value.invalidate().value === "off") {
        trackMarkerTargetButton.elementClick();
    }
}

selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name: "TRACK NAME GOES HERE" });

Hey there, that was not working for me in 2023.6.

I did a couple edits, and this is working for me now, plus I added the prompt function which made it easy to type the "BGs" or "Diag" track name, etc, as I ran the script:

function selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name }) {
    const track = sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name }).track;
    const trackMarkerTargetButton = track.groups.whoseTitle.is("Markers View").first
        .buttons.whoseTitle.is("Add Marker").first;

    track.trackSelect();
    if (trackMarkerTargetButton.exists) trackMarkerTargetButton.elementClick();
}

selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name: prompt("Enter Track Name to Add Marker") });

@raphaelsepulveda It's Perfect ... Thank you

This will work perfect if you use it 1 time. If you launch it the second time, when you are already at the selected track, the target button is already on and it will be turned off again. So that will result in a non-track marker.
I think there is no way to check the state of a target button?
Going back to the previous selected track is a workaround but maybe there is a better way?

Man I'd really love to get this script working. I can really use it for this show I'm on. I can't get it working for some reason. Am I doing something wrong?
The track name is the only thing I'm adding in the last line. My last line looks like this...

selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name: "DIA ALL" });

Is there a format error in that? thanks

I got it. Just added to it.

function selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name }) {
const track = sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name }).track;
const trackMarkerTargetButton = track.groups.whoseTitle.is("Markers View").first
.buttons.whoseTitle.is("Target Track for Markers").first

track.trackSelect();

if (trackMarkerTargetButton.exists && trackMarkerTargetButton.value.invalidate().value === "off") {
    trackMarkerTargetButton.elementClick();
}

}

selectTrackAndMarkerTarget({ name: "DIA ALL" });

sf.keyboard.press({
keys: "cmd+numpad enter",
});
