      This one should do it:

      sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.trackDisplaySelect({
    displayPath: ['playlists']
});

            Is it possible to make a command that changes between waveform view and playlist view?
            Something like "depending on state"? or "if displaypath is playlist change to waveform"

              This should do it:

              if (sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.invalidate().displaySelectorButton.value.value === "waveform") {
    sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.trackDisplaySelect({
        displayPath: ['playlists']
    });
} else {
    sf.ui.proTools.selectedTrack.trackDisplaySelect({
        displayPath: ['waveform']
    });
}

                  Hi Chris,
                  I just tried this script and it does work perfectly....
                  Except the Track Size is larger than "Medium".
                  Which I sometimes working in "Small" Track Size.

                  Is it possible a bug I just discover?

                    Hi Kenny,

                    Yes you're right this won't work if the track size is too small. We should potentially resize the track size for you when running this command if the track is too small. Unfortunately due to the way SF interacts with PT that would be the only solution.

                      I know this is really a really old post, but when I try this script the only thing it will do is change display to waveform, not open playlist or toggle between waveform/playlist view. Any thoughts on why?

                          In a macro, click "Add action", then search for it :)
