Sync Channels

[dkwroot]

Is there a way to sync channels in a reference layer using code? I can't seem to find the function.

first of all a health warning -- I've never used this function, so I can't tell you what needs to be done before / after!

but hopefully this will set you on the way : MohoLayer:UpdateReferencedLayer(syncOptions) -- see: http://mohoscripting.com/index.php?show ... er&id=1117

This doesn't say anything about updating the channels though. I'm trying to find a way to sync the channels with the reference source.

[synthsin75]

That should sync all channels for that layer. Are you needing to selectively sync channels?

[dkwroot]

Yeah, I was planning to create a script that would iterate through all layers and sync certain channels to their source.

[synthsin75]

Sorry, I'm not seeing any access to resyncing individual channels by script. And UpdateReferencedLayer doesn't do the channels either.

[dkwroot]

Okay, I'll go ahead and make a ticket regarding this. There definitely needs to be a better way for managing reference layers.

I actually already created a ticket for this problem:

It was targeted for the 12.2 release but doesn't seem to have been included.
