I'm using radials a lot and i want to make as less clicks as possible.

Working on a series of commands.
1. Preset based on radial with neutral settings
2. Show Radial tool
3. Select Local Preset
3. ( select radial  ) ???  
4. Move and resize radial.

Is there anything that can be done in the API for these mouse only actions.
Select radial, duplicate radial, resize radial.
It's no problem if they are circular when resizing.

Just wondering what is possible.

Unfortunately there is very little that can be done creating a filter (gradient,radial,brush) because Adobe does not provide any means through the API or keyboard, the creation and shaping of a filter can only be done with the use of the mouse. The only part that can be done is to use a workaround to apply the settings in a local adjustment preset to the currently selected filter.

I understand and would just selecting the only current radial an option?

There is this weird behaviour in lightroom that when you apply a preset with just a radial that it doesn't select it, even when you have the gradial tool enabled.
Creating develop presets with just radials is a nice workaround.
