Hi Brian.

What is the trigger that you have associated with this macro?
Can you show me a screenshot of the macro you have, just to make sure there isn't something weird in the setup somewhere?

  Hey Christian,
  
  I've tried just a keystroke, also via stream deck. Doesn't work

  Can you share a screenshot of the macro? Just to see which action you're using. Or maybe you could copy the macro and paste it here? (Cmd+C on the macro, Cmd+V in the editor here)
  Just so I can see whether or not it's a built in action you're running, or by chance an installed script action.

  Hi Brian,
  
  This is a very weird bug. Your macro looks fine, and when I run it here in Pro Tools it also works just fine.
  The deletion also is a command I use very often here.
  
  Can you show us a screen recording of it not working? Maybe there's something else going on here. Do you have any other keyboard software installed that could be interfering?
  
  The macro you're using essentially just calls this code:
  
  sf.ui.proTools.trackDelete();
  
  This action under the hood just calls the menu item "Track -> Delete" if it's present, and if not, "Track -> Delete...".
  So I don't really see why it would end up doing something completely different.
  
  Can you try instead using the built-in SoundFlow command for "Delete Selected Track(s)" in "Track Functions"?

Hey Christian,

I'm sorry, this was my fault. I had had a conflicting command that I forgot was operational in Keyboard Maestro. I'll try to review those next time.

I fixed that, and the Delete Selected Tracks command worked as expected.

Best,

Brian
