Keymap: Add ctrl+alt+up/down for new move track up/down actions
REAPER 7.46 is available, with the following updates:
+ Actions: add actions to move tracks up/down, similar to drag/dropping to position above/below selected tracks
I'd suggest mapping these to ctrl+alt+up/down. I'm really happy with these actions! No longer ctrl+x and ctrl+v when you want to move a track around.
Probably best not to use those keystrokes. On machines with integrated Intel graphics they mess with screen orientation by default. It is possible to disable the graphics shortcuts, but has to be done manually by each user, and if they don't know to do that ahead of trying the new actions, their display settings will get messed up, breaking other tools like Sibiac/ReaHotkey.
BTW, made a start on reporting these actions and found a problem with the move down one that didn't get caught during testing. If a folder is selected, it doesn't work. I'll probably wait for that to be fixed up before adding them to the key map.

Good point. I'm on AMD for years now so didn't realize that.
Yeah I've been using Ryzen for a few years now too, still get to see that conflict tripping people up quite often though when Melodyne tries to use Control+Alt+Up and Down. Another thought here was to make OSARA wrapper actions to call these when tracks are fakeFocus, calling REAPER's actions that move items/envelope points when either of those are fakeFocus instead. Wrapper actions are easy to implement, but the sticky wicket is these new actions don't behave the same in terms of preserving non-contiguous track spacing. To report the differences accurately would be really convoluted and probably difficult for translators. I've already discussed differences in behaviour with Cockos and for now, it is the way it is.
