    Hello, new to SoundFlow here… I can’t seem to find a command to view all volume trim automation. There’s one for the volume automation lane and a search feature for specific lane views, but nothing I can see for volume trim automation. Has anyone made a script for this? Thanks!

            You can make a macro and add the action "Select Track Display" and enter 'volume trim' in the display path:

            or use something like this in a script :

            //Display Volume Trim For Selected Track
            sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.displaySelectorButton.popupMenuSelect({
                  menuPath: ["volume trim"],
               });

              Wonderful, thanks! However, It seems to only work on audio tracks... Is there a way I can make this "do to all tracks (option)?" I have little time to get into scripting, but I will try.

                    Hi @Dryw_Owens,

                    Thanks for the question. The macro action that @Brandon_Jiaconia shared works across all selected tracks if you set the "For All Selected" toggle to "Yes" instead of "No" like this:

                    That is likely the simplest way to achieve this.

                    In code, it's this:

                    sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.trackDisplaySelect({
                        displayPath: ["volume trim"],
                        selectForAllSelectedTracks: true,
                    });
                    
                    

                    These are functionally identical.

                        Thank! This seems not to be the case. Checking the “selected box” does not propagate the action across all tracks in the session .

                          @Dryw_Owens, my apologies! I misread your post.

                          You can create a new script with this and it should work as expected.

                          sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.displaySelectorButton.popupMenuSelect({
                                menuPath: ["volume trim"],
                                isOption: true,
                             });
