hi,
been using trackView.pickTrackDlg in a script but i just can't figure out how the options: argument works? it says it takes an integer value and uses the bits to turn on and off the display of tracks - but putting an integer in i can't see how it works - i have got the desired effect by plugging in random numbers :) but i would really like to understand how it works

thanks
mark

First of all, how extensive is your knowledge of binary numbers? Do you know about bit flags and bit masking? Do you know how to count in binary? Covert from binary to decimal and vice versa? You need to know this stuff first before it can be properly explained.

hi wahooney thanks for your reply,

i haven't used binary for years so i will look it up, assuming i know how to use binary how do i use the options argument.

thanks
