Get Selected Item(s) in Project Panel

Going through the examples and documentation, I couldn't find a function or value to tell if a folder or footage item is selected or access that item in the Project Panel of Premiere Pro. Closest thing I found was .select() which only selects the item you have coded. Has anyone had any success with this? Thanks!

Correct answer Bruce Bullis

While PProPanel now shows how to get a message (and all selected projectItems) every time the project selection changes, getting and setting selection are not yet available.

There is no API around project selections, in current versions of PPro. It's a highly-requested feature.

Any updates on this feature implementation? Thanks!

sberic​ I haven't used TrackItems before. Do they correlate to objects selected in the Project Panel or Timeline? I'm trying to get objects selected in the Project Panel.


trackItems = things on a track, in a sequence.
