Making an Editable Copy
Hi there,
I was reading the INITIAL post of which this script was derived from as posted by Mark Abrams in which I saw (@Forrester_Savell) mention that we could adjust the values by "making an editable copy" of the script. Strip Silence Script
I was wondering how exactly to do this because I don't see such a feature that would grant me access to the script itself. I can see parameters to make a Preset, but this is a little different than what I was hoping to uncover.
Am I missing something within soundflow? Would I need to ask the creator for his script?
Thanks in advance!

You can make an editable copy of a command template by selecting the root "command" from the command list and then using the "Make Editable Copy" button.
In this case, it would take some playing around,
From there, you'd need to go to the copied command template, click "Template, " then adjust the "Enum Members," their values, and display titles.
This script uses mouse clicks based on pixel amounts, so it may take some time to find which pixel value will result in the correct amount on the slider, but you should be able to adjust the values accordingly.
The range of the sliders is 0-226 pixels, so you can roughly divide the range (-96 to 0 has a range of 97 values) and (0 to 4000 msec has a range of 40001) values by 226 and then multiply that value of 1px by the desired result. The math is a little complex for the threshold since it's a negative range, but it's still doable.
For example, to set the threshold slider to -40dB, the math is:
97-35 = 57
57 / (97/226) = 132.8 px (Which is why "132" is listed as the value for -40dB)
The msec math is a bit easier but less precise as 4001/226 = 17.7, meaning the values can only be set in about 18 increments without further adjustment. So, to set the minimum duration to 1,008 msec, the math is:
1,008 / (4001/226) = 56.9 px (Which is why "57" is listed as the value for "1008")
