<h3>Track specific operations</h3>
<p class="note">
Selected strip operations are complex enough for their own page.
Please read: <a
- href="/using-control-surfaces/controlling-ardour-with-osc/selection-considerations-in-osc/">

Selection Considerations in OSC.</a> This is most important if more

with the mouse (or keyboard):</p>
<kbd class="osc">/access_action <em>action_name</em></kbd>
<p>
- The <a
- href="/appendix/menu-actions-list/">
- list of actions</a> shows all available values of <em>action-name</em> as of
- June 2016 for Ardour 5.0.pre0.1. You can get the current list at any
- time by running Ardour with the -b flag.
- </p>
+ As of Ardour 5.9, <em>access_action</em> can be inlined for control surfaces
+ that are unable to send string parameters. The <em>action_name</em> is composed of
+ a group and an action in the form of <em>Group/action</em> which fits very well
+ as an OSC path extension:
+</p>
+<kbd class="osc">/access_action/<em>Group/action</em> <em>key_pressed</em></kbd>
+<p>
+ The key_pressed is optional, but if present is a float 1 or 0 where the
+ command is ignored if key_pressed is 0.
+</p>
+<p class="note">
+ Some of the Menu Actions duplicate other OSC commands. In all cases it is better
+ to use the OSC commands rather than the Menu Actions if possible as the OSC commands
+ are more direct.
+</p>
+<p>
+ The <a href="@@list-of-menu-actions"> list of actions</a>
+ shows all available values of <em>action-name</em> for Ardour.
+</p>
+<!--p> These listed below are still working but may in the future not work
+any more. All of them are just short cuts to a menu action and since menu
+actions can now be "inlined", all known OSC controllers can call them directly.
+Any of these actions that can be moved to session->action calls may reapear.
