TrackBank/Cursor Track positions with groups?

So i've been using parts of that channel finder script that we cooked up but now i'm experiencing strange results from a bitwig set.

Is there anyway to get the cursor track to use a flat list as well? it seems like CursorTrack.position() is not the same as TrackBank.position().

Sometimes even the selector in the cursor track gui gets confused and cannot navigate this.

As a simple fix, I'm considering removing all groups from my set and replace with some manual bus routing... but maybe there is another way?

Ok... so i'm pretty sure my issue is directly related to this...

trackBank.followCursorTrack(cursorTrack);

It doesn't seem to be following the cursor track at all!! Not sure whats up with that. Or maybe i don't understand how that interaction is supposed to work. Fighting this all day tbh.

Ended up updating my channel finder to add bank functionality since it looks like i'll need to do both.

hmm... ok. so after reading the new bitwig changelog 3.2.7.
CursorTrack.position always returned -1 when cursor was on a group track
Looks like some of my problems were possibly related to this... Will need to confirm the trackbank is following my cursor track because i took out all that code. I might go back in and try it again after this fix.

I bet this also fixes some of the cursor track issues when navigating tracks using the cursor track GUI. Makes me wonder if the bitwig developers are reading this forum... like ghost spirits taking care of us. The story unfolds...

Almost a year later and i figured out the big issue with the trackbank. even if you ask for a flat list... any folded tracks are hidden from that list.

So is there an actual way to get a list of all the channel objects in a set? That would be so damn nice.

I am afraid there is none.
