Title: GetLinkExpanded
Post by: MahlerFreak on February 22, 2024, 05:58:36 pm

Can someone explain to me what File/GetLinkExpanded does, maybe with a simple example? Can I create custom URL fields that will be automatically loaded by JR? Thanks for any help.

Run MC and use the localhost documentation there.

Here's the full documentation:

     GetLinkExpanded
         Gets the files with the links expanded.

Hope that helps  ;D

... from the name, perhaps it returns the filepaths with any soft links expanded, ie, the real path to the files. Only useful in Linux/Mac I guess.

Its for the track linking feature, so if you ask for one file in a linked track structure, it expands to all linked tracks.

Thanks @Hendrik. Now I’ll go investigate linked tracks :-)
