[m4L] clip position property availability !! please!

[julienb]

hello,

something missing: the clip position.
I'm working on a workaround but it sucks: http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=130593

the best way could be a ratio: current position / length

there should be this property in 3 places in the LOM:
- track (independantly of the clipslot triggered/running, you get the ratio of the playing clip of the track)
- clip_slot
- clip

is it planned ?

noone interested excepted me?

villalobos maybe

ahah
I'm soon in day off.
I'll do that... for me, and him.
I mean, I'll build/finish the workaround...

this thread shows I'm not the only one interested: http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php? ... 9#p1037229 (even if I started it )

+1000 i'm happyish with the current playing position solution but it's not foolproof, the data exists in ableton as you see the status bar change and be accurate.... Can we just have this information....

Hi,

As asked in the other thread, have you looked at the "playing_position" property? See here for more details:

this topic can be closed as I changed my glasses and discovered playing_position property of clips is available !

btw, on the website, the LOM doc refers to 8.1b7... so... I'm forgiven
