How to copy Clip name, consolidate and paste the name on the new clip?

Hi Joachim,

I have a script that is very close to this. If I get a chance tomorrow, I'll see if I can tailor it for your purpose.

Rock on!

Here it is in action Joachim,

I thought I'd make a screen capture of it so you can see whats happening. (Be sure to watch it in HD 1080p60)

This script does the following;

1. Consolidates the selected clip.
2. Re-names the consolidated clip based on the first clips "Parent Name" Label in the Rename window.
3. Adds an incremented version number (ie V2, V3... etc)
4. Changes the color of the consolidated clip.

Here is the Script;

//Activate Protools
sf.ui.proTools.appActivateMainWindow();

function main() {
    //Clear Clip List Search
    sf.keyboard.press({
        keys: 'cmd+shift+d',
        fast: true
    });

    //Get Selection in Samples
    var oldSelection = sf.ui.proTools.selectionGetInSamples();

    //Press Down Key and Shift Tab to select first clip
    sf.keyboard.press({
        keys: "down, shift+quote",
    });

    //Check that first selection is a full clip and not a fade by checking to see if menu item "Loop..." is enabled
    //If the first selection is a fade, extend the region selection to the region end.
    if (!sf.ui.proTools.getMenuItem("Clip", "Loop...").isEnabled) {
        sf.keyboard.press({
            keys: "shift+tab",
        });
    };

    //Open Clip => Rename
    sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({ menuPath: ['Clip', 'Rename...'] });

    //Wait for Rename window to Appear
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.elementWaitFor({
        waitType: "Appear",
    });

    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.windowMove({
        size: { "x": 1000, "y": 451 },
    });

    //Get Parent File name
    var parentName = sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.groups.whoseTitle.is('Clip Info').first.children.whoseRole.is("AXStaticText").allItems[2].value.value;

    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.windowMove({
        size: { "x": 316, "y": 451 },
    });

    //Remove .wav from end of parent file name
    var parentNameWithoutWav = parentName.split('.').slice(0, -1).join('.');

    //Click Rename window Cancel button
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.buttons.whoseTitle.is('Cancel').first.elementClick();

    //Wait for Rename window to Disappear
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.elementWaitFor({
        waitType: "Disappear",
    });

    //Set old Selection
    sf.ui.proTools.selectionSetInSamples({
        selectionStart: oldSelection.selectionStart,
        selectionLength: oldSelection.selectionLength
    });

    //Consolidate Clips
    sf.ui.proTools.clipConsolidate();

    //Wait for Modals
    sf.ui.proTools.waitForNoModals();

    //Open Clip => Rename
    sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({ menuPath: ['Clip', 'Rename...'] });

    //Wait for Rename window to Appear
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.elementWaitFor({
        waitType: "Appear",
    });

    //Check that the clip info is visible, if not open it 
    if (!sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.groups.whoseTitle.is('Clip Info').first.children.whoseRole.is("AXStaticText").whoseValue.is('User Time Stamp:').first.exists) {
        sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.groups.whoseTitle.is('Clip Info').first.mouseClickElement({
            relativePosition: { "x": 12, "y": 12 },
        });
    };

    //Get and Increment Last Number
    function getAndIncrementLastNumber(str) {
        return str.replace(/\d+$/, function (s) {
            return ++s;
        });
    }

    //Variable for new clip name
    var newClipName = getAndIncrementLastNumber(parentNameWithoutWav);

    if (newClipName == parentNameWithoutWav) {
        //Set the name to parentNameWithoutWav_v2
        sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.groups.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.textFields.first.elementSetTextFieldWithAreaValue({ value: parentNameWithoutWav + " v2" });
    }
    else {
        //Set the name of the new consolidated file
        sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.groups.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.textFields.first.elementSetTextFieldWithAreaValue({ value: newClipName });
    };

    //Click Rename window OK button
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.buttons.whoseTitle.is('Ok').first.elementClick();

    //Wait for Rename window to Disappear
    sf.ui.proTools.windows.whoseTitle.is('Name').first.elementWaitFor({
        waitType: "Disappear",
    });

    //Change clip color to pink
    sf.ui.proTools.colorsSelect({
        colorTarget: "ClipsInTracks",
        colorNumber: 4,
    });
}

//Change the Main Counter to Samples for the duration of the main function
sf.ui.proTools.mainCounterDoWithValue({
    targetValue: 'Samples',
    action: () => {
        main();
    }
});

Hope that helps :-)
Rock on!
