@Mathias Moehl 

Is there a way to toggle audio/video Track Lock in Premiere Pro with Mamoworld Automation Blocks (aescript plugin)?

@Bruce Bullis 

Is there a way to toggle audio/video Track Lock in Premiere Pro, with Extendscript API (or QE DOM) ?

Today we published an update of Automation Blocks, which includes a block to execute arbitrary jsx code. With this, you can now also lock tracks with Automation Blocks.

See https://docs.mamoworld.com/automation-blocks/block-reference/prOther#track-set-locked

Automation Blocks does not support this, yet. On my feature request list now with link to this discussion 🙂

Yes, Track objects (in the normal DOM) have isLocked() and setLocked() methods.

Intereting! Are those new? I don't find isLockedd/setLocked in the docs:

No, just under-documented.
