I seem to be having problems with all my scripts requiring access to the playlist selector as of today after upgrading to ProTools 2024.3. I've updated to SF 5.7.0, but it was occurring with 5.5.4 too.
Even this basic script by @Chris_Shaw appears to be broken
New Playlist & Duplicate Playlist
Can anyone else confirm?

Re: The script you refer to above, the fix would be to add a relative position to the Playlist selector popup action (
trackAction
would be the menu item you wish to select)://Duplicate or Create New Tracks depending on value of `trackAction` sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.popupButtons.whoseTitle.is("Playlist selector").first.popupMenuSelect({ isShift: true, isOption: true, menuPath: [trackAction], relativePosition: {x:5, y:5} })

Thanks for the solution @Chris_Shaw !!
After a bit of searching on the forum for solutions, I realize this fix is necessary for a quite a few other scripts to make them compatible with PT2024.3.
@chrscheuer @Kitch Perhaps it could be a good idea to pin a PSA at the top of the forum regarding known issues with 2024.3 (or any version of PT as they're released) just so people can quickly reference the updates/modifications they need to make to custom scripts. Maybe this exists somewhere, but top of the forum would be a great place for it.

That's a great suggestion @Forrester_Savell.
There is a chance though that this issue may be fixable under the hood so I'll log this internally so we can investigate further. :-)
Rock on!

This report was now added to the internal issue tracked by SoundFlow as SF-869
- SIn reply toForrester_Savell⬆:SoundFlow Bot @soundflowbot
Linked issue SF-869 updated: This issue should now be resolved in SoundFlow 5.7.1 which is available as a manual download from https://my.soundflow.org - We changed the behavior of popupMenuSelect ("Open & Select Item in Popup Menu") so that it simulates a mouse click in the center of the button, instead of in the top-left corner. This should ensure that buttons with non-clickable borders, like certain track-related buttons in recent versions of Pro Tools, will keep working without having to set up custom offsets.
