I've been trying to find an economical way to simply copy all selected track names from the name field in Logic Pro X, to paste in either a text edit document or in the Logic notepad.
I've tried creating a script using key commands, but it's problematic advancing to the next track name to copy and paste. For instance, I CAN:
copy and paste a track name > open notepad > hit edit > paste name > close note pad > select next track, rinse & repeat all done with just key commands.
I'd like to find a better way to batch copy the track names in order to paste into the stems after stem printing process is done.
Any ideas would be super helpful.

This script will get the selected track names in Logic and create a text file on your desktop named "Selected_Track_Names.txt" with the selected track names in it.
const textFilePath = "~/Desktop/Selected_Track_Names.txt"; function getSelectedTrackNames() { const logic = sf.ui.logic; const trackArea = logic.mainWindow .groups.whoseDescription.is('Tracks').first .groups.whoseDescription.is('Tracks'); const trackHeadersGroup = trackArea.allItems[1] .splitGroups.first .splitGroups.allItems[1] .scrollAreas.first .groups.whoseDescription.is('Tracks header').first; const selectedTrackHeaders = trackHeadersGroup.getElements('AXSelectedChildren'); const selectedTrackNames = selectedTrackHeaders.map(th => th.getString("AXDescription").match(/“(.*)”/)[1]) return selectedTrackNames; } function addToTextFile(lines) { sf.file.writeText({ path: textFilePath, text: lines.join("\n") }); } function main() { const selectedTrackNames = getSelectedTrackNames(); addToTextFile(selectedTrackNames); } main();
