Create buttons to change between project tabs

[jorgeptec]

Your project for Reaper is perfect for what I need, which is to control the multitrack dynamically.

I use Reaper at church and the songs vary from day to day as does the order of performance. For each service I open the projects I'm going to use that day (songs) in tabs and navigate between them, this way I don't need to put all the multitracks of all the songs in a single project and edit the markers every time.

So, I wonder if it would be possible to add, above the group of existing "play, pause and stop" buttons, one to select the "project in the previous tab" and another to select the "project in the subsequent tab"?

Thanks in advance

Hi, there are actions in the API to switch to the previous/next tab (40861 and 40862), but I don't see a way to get a list of opened tabs or at least just the count of tabs. I am hesitant to clutter the UI with a new row of buttons, which would also be sort of useless in cases when there is just one tab opened in Reaper.

If you see an elegant way to add these buttons (apart from adding a new row of buttons), or there is a way to query how many tabs are opened (or even better a list with project names), I would be glad to add that 👍

Hi, based on your idea of ​​actions, I changed your html and replaced the "loop" and "recording" buttons, in addition to changing the icons of those buttons, since for my purpose they would be unnecessary and I identify the songs by putting the name of them in the first mapped region.

Thanks a lot for the help.
