[RWP] automation

[Indigo]

Oh, you said automation.
I just thought only of what action would do it.
Could you assign an action button or icon, whatever they call it, the 
one you imbed into the track time line at the appropriate place?
There is an action titled something like run when the cursor passes over 
the imbedded button.
Hope this helps;
