ListCOMP Row Selection via Python

Does anyone know how to select a row in a listCOMP via Python? I’m trying to select with a syntax of op(‘list1’).click(row=2).

I’ve seen click options with UV coordinates but it’s not easy to calculate a UV position on a large list when your target row is not visible on the screen.

Any tips would be helpful.
Thanks!

Currently, there’s no click methods for the listCOMP, though Im guessing you’d have to specify both row and column when it does.
You’re right about the other methods being difficult to calculate u,v in this context.
Sorry about that, we’ll add it to our RFEs.

Cool, thanks Rob.

Here’s a little more info for a higher-level understanding of what I’m doing:
I am building a playlist with a listCOMP and using it to select media files from a playlist. There are times where I am automating the playlist so the files play one after the other (like iTunes). I’m trying to update the playlist to show the currently playing file.

Make sense?

Thanks!

Yah, its a very reasonable request, and would match similar click methods for our other panels.

Just ran into the same problem.
Seems like a rudimentary feature for a list…

Agreed, definitely need this functionality.

Sounds like it’s time to learn how to tame the more powerful and less structured tableCOMP.

Hi,

Is there any development on that subject ? I would also really need to be able to click on a specific row via Python !

If anyone is still looking for info about this, definitely try the Lister Custom Component. It’s in the wiki.
