Default Re: Selecting a clip part on all tracks optionally including rulers

This sucks. I don't get how this isn't an obvious thing to include...

The GPT-4 answer

"Unfortunately, there isn't a single key combination in Pro Tools 12.5 that allows you to make a multi-selection across both the tracks and the rulers simultaneously.

As you mentioned, using Alt + Shift will allow you to make a multi-selection across all tracks, but not the rulers.

To achieve the desired selection, you'll have to follow these steps:

- First, use the Grabber Tool to click on a clip in a track.
- Press and hold Alt + Shift to select clips across all the tracks.
- Release the keys, and then hold down the SHIFT key.
- While holding the SHIFT key, click on the desired ruler (e.g., Tempo Ruler) to add it to your selection.

Unfortunately, there isn't a more streamlined method to achieve this in Pro Tools 12.5."

Imagine that you forget to select any of the rulers you are using in the session while you for example double a song part. Everything becomes a mess if you do.

And other relating ****y thing is, that even though you make the selection the harder way, like I do, and copy a song part, as soon as you undo that step the selection on the rulers disappears and you have to remake it...
