I don't have a direct answer to your question, but I suspect the
trick is going to be to just think about item selection, not track
selection. So, the last thing you select should be an item. It's
also going to be easier to do this using non-contiguous selection, I
think. Otherwise, you'll end up accidentally selecting stuff you
don't want.<br>
<br>
Note that while REAPER is itself very context sensitive, OSARA takes
it even further. While it does have its drawbacks when dealing with
complex stuff like this, the problem with not being context
sensitive is that you need a lot of extra commands for each possible
context.<br>
