Command keyboard focus

[Martin (Punky) Sopart]

Hello all!

When changing the "focus" in Pro Tools by pressing Command+Option+1, 2 or 3, Flo Tools announces the changes.
Thanks for that.

Is "timeline keyboard focus" a newer word for "command keyboard focus"?
Because that's what Flo Tools announces when pressing Command+Option+1.

I didn't changed the "focus" for a very long time and so my question comes quite late.

Thanks in advance and regards! / Martin

Hi Martin,
Yep they changed the name a while ago. People generally don't notice much because they're icons. Sound Flow users did complain a bit because their macro workflows needed to be changed because they do actually see the name of the control through UI automation.

And, just to be clear, the mode is still referred to as "Commands Keyboard Focus." It's just that Avid chose to name the UI element that way as opposed to naming it the other way. I suppose there's no rhyme or reason to us but I'm sure there was some internal reason to change it.

Hello Slau!

Thank you for clarifying and explaining.
I just asked because a customer asked me after he read in the manual about the "command keyboard focus" and Flo Tools tells him about the "timeline keyboard focus".

Best! / Martin
