@dinnyesg How's about - click anywhere on the track you want to select.

  • Click & hold the left mouse button then click the right button once - this will give you the normal selection box.
  • Keep the left button pressed down & click the right button a second time - this will give a vertical selection option.
  • Keep the left button pressed down & click the right button a third time - this will give a horizontal selection option. (this option will stay active next time you left button hold + right click, right click again to get back to the normal selection option)

    Thank You! I have learned a usefull thing!

    In my special case, it is quite common that the affected track has minimal height and so very easy to have the adjecent track selected too.

    And, of course, a script would allow you to do that as well.

    @dinnyesg Yep, I understand, I work on a 32" UHD screen & rarely work with many tracks, I can just fit 8 tracks on screen which is enough for me without minimalizing any, but whether it helps your situation or not it's nice to learn new things 👍😊

    @jetdv Hi, excellent 👍 Thanks for the video, I'm an absolute newby to scripts, I'm trying to learn but a lot still goes way over my head.🙃

    I modified one of your previous scripts in Notepad to look like the last one you changed in the video.

    Thanks, this is what I created & works 👍 (I've since moved it to the Toolbar for easier access)
