Selecting Last Track In Session

    A simple question I think;
    Can you select the last track in a session without knowing its name and without having it scroll into view?
    Thanks

      @Andrew_Downes, yeah! Here you go:

      function selectLastTrackInSession() {
    sf.ui.proTools.appActivateMainWindow();
    sf.ui.proTools.mainWindow.invalidate();

    const trackNames = sf.ui.proTools.trackNames;

    sf.ui.proTools.trackSelectByName({
        names: [trackNames[trackNames.length - 1]]
    });
}

selectLastTrackInSession();

          @raphaelsepulveda Raphael, is there a way to add the "control shift" command to this action so the edit window scrolls down to the last track? I have been trying to figure this out but unfortunately, I have no clue! Thank you so much

            Unfortunately, using that command only works if the track is already visible on the screen. I suggest using an "end" keystroke to bring the Edit window all the way down. Just place this line at the end of the script:

            sf.keyboard.press({ keys: "end" }); // Bring Edit window down to last track

                Different Key Command, same action. Works perfectly and does exactly what I want it to do. Thank you so much Raphael
