Wait for Pro Tools to stop playing or recording (is it the same?)

    Hi!

    I'm trying to have another action start AFTER printing my mix. Is there a function or piece of code I can use for Soundflow to wait for PT to stop playing (or recording) before starting the next action?

    Thank you very much!

        I'm thinking this should work,
        let me know:

        while (true) {

    if (sf.ui.proTools.isPlaying) {

        sf.wait()

        log("is playing")
    } else {

        log("stoped")
        break;
    }
}

        Once you get it working, remove the log lines, they are just to know what is going on, while the script is running
