Checkbox Dialogue to Enable/Disable Macros in a List

[alph]

Hello!

I'd like to have a workflow that:

Macro 1: Executes a set of macros

Macro 2: Open a dialogue box to adjust the set of macros used in Macro 1

I'm an tv editor and work with a different 'sets' of audio tracks for each scene. For example, audio track 3 up to audio track 8 for one scene and then just audio track 1 for the next scene.

I have 10 audio tracks and I have macros to turn on/off each track. They're just simple keyboard triggers that correspond to the application shortcuts. I am imagining the ideal solution would involve having a list of the 10 macros, and then a checkbox list that corresponds to the status of the 10 macros.

Any ideas appreciated!

Thanks,
Aren

Okay, I seem to have come up with a solution that's working ok. I'll describe it here in case someone else is looking to do something similar.

I created a Macro Group and set it to 'always activated and shows a paelette until'. It contains:

• 10 macros that each enable/disable their corresponding audio track
• A macro to activate a dialgoue box to individually enable/disable the 10 macros.

The 10 macros to enable/disable audio are just simple keyboard triggers that correspond to the application shortcuts.

The other macro invokes a dialogue so that lists the audio tracks as variables and checkboxes.

You use the checkboxes to record a value to the variable and then the macro will either enable or disable each of the 10 macros based on your selection using an if/else action.

From here, I'm able to use this on/off value to control whether or not my audio tracks are included in my other macros, such as insert editing into sequences, adjusting patching etc.
