I'm desperately trying to enable/restore stop clip buttons on APC40 with JS LiveAPI:

api.call("set_stop_track_clip_buttons", ???????????);

Python implementation expects an array of button instances, so in Max/JS we can assume this function to expect something like a list of control id's or a list of "id X"-type strings.. any ideas? So far anything I try leads to "invalid syntax" :/

def set_stop_track_clip_buttons(self, buttons):

assert ((buttons == None) or (isinstance(buttons, tuple) and (len(buttons) == self._num_tracks)))

if (self._stop_track_clip_buttons != buttons):

if (self._stop_track_clip_buttons != None):

for button in self._stop_track_clip_buttons:

button.remove_value_listener(self._stop_track_value)

button.add_value_listener(self._stop_track_value, identify_sender=True)

self._on_fired_slot_index_changed(list(buttons).index(button))

[code]
...blabla...
api.call("set_stop_track_clip_buttons", ???????????);
[/code]

[code]
    def set_stop_track_clip_buttons(self, buttons):
        assert ((buttons == None) or (isinstance(buttons, tuple) and (len(buttons) == self._num_tracks)))
        if (self._stop_track_clip_buttons != buttons):
            if (self._stop_track_clip_buttons != None):
                for button in self._stop_track_clip_buttons:
                    button.remove_value_listener(self._stop_track_value)

            self._stop_track_clip_buttons = buttons
            if (self._stop_track_clip_buttons != None):
                for button in self._stop_track_clip_buttons:
                    assert isinstance(button, ButtonElement)
                    button.add_value_listener(self._stop_track_value, identify_sender=True)
                    self._on_fired_slot_index_changed(list(buttons).index(button))

            self._rebuild_callback()
            self.update()
[/code]


how-do-i-pass-array-type-arguments-to-live-api-in-js

I have the same problem in trying to call the "note" method, which expects a list of 5 numbers after it.

seeing that with other methods which don't require arguments the syntax is like this:

i'm not sure what we're supposed to do when there ARE arguments.

Calls the given function of the current object, optionally with a list of arguments.

but if the arguments to the "call" method are provided as a string (like the "select_all_notes" example above), then what to do when there are arguments?

myClip.call("note",64, 0 , 0.25, 100 , 0);

jsliveapi: Invalid syntax: 'note 64 0 0.25 100 0'

jsliveapi: Invalid syntax: 'note "64 0 0.25 100 0"'

myClip.call("note(64, 0, 0.25, 100, 0)");

jsliveapi: 'Clip' object has no attribute 'note(64, 0, 0.25, 100, 0)'

How do I pass array-type arguments to Live API in JS?
