Organize track order

Hello Hendrick Valera ,

I made one of these some time ago and just noticed it could be improved.

First you need to select the tracks you want sorted, then run the script.

It will select each, then menu click "Select All" and take the start time.

Then it will move the tracks so they are ordered by starting clip in timeline.

On mine, for some reason, (witch I think it's my computer being annoying), it might not do it on first go.
So I added a bit to keep trying until the order is correct.

It will do it for any amount of tracks you select.

Be aware that using mouse simulate is not the most stable thing, but that's the way to move tracks.

Let me know if this is it.

function moveTracksToTop(selectedTracks, trackNames) {

    //  Safety deselect all
    sf.ui.proTools.trackDeselectAll()

    //  Get possition of first track
    let firstTrackPosition = sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name: selectedTracks[0] }).track.frame


    //  Safety deselect all
    sf.ui.proTools.trackDeselectAll()

    for (let i = 0; i < trackNames.length; i++) {

        sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name: trackNames[i] }).track.trackScrollToView()

        const elementPosition = sf.ui.proTools.trackGetByName({ name: trackNames[i] }).track.frame

        sf.mouse.simulateDrag({
            startPosition: { "x": elementPosition.x + 20, "y": elementPosition.y + 10 },
            endPosition: { "x": elementPosition.x + 20, "y": firstTrackPosition.y },
        });

        sf.ui.proTools.invalidate()
    }
}


function getTrackNameStartTime(selectedTracks) {

    let startTime
    let trackList = []

    for (let i = 0; i < selectedTracks.length; i++) {

        sf.ui.proTools.trackSelectByName({ names: [selectedTracks[i]] })

        sf.ui.proTools.menuClick({ menuPath: ["Edit", "Select All"] });

        startTime = sf.ui.proTools.selectionGetInSamples().selectionStart

        trackList[i] = {
            trackName: selectedTracks[i],
            startTime: +startTime
        }
    }
    return trackList
}


function main() {

    sf.ui.proTools.appActivateMainWindow();
    sf.ui.proTools.invalidate()

    const selectedTracks = sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrackNames

    const trackList = getTrackNameStartTime(selectedTracks)

    ///  Sort array of objects by property. ? 1:-1 ascending / ? -1:1 descending 
    const tracksToMove = trackList.sort((a, b) => (a.startTime > b.startTime) ? -1 : 1).map(track => track.trackName)

    moveTracksToTop(selectedTracks, tracksToMove)

    sf.ui.proTools.trackSelectByName({ names: selectedTracks })

    if (sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrackNames.join(",") != tracksToMove.reverse().toString()) {
        main()
    } else {
        alert("Sorted")
    }
}
main()
