Externally jumping to next / previous sequencer row with Mappings

[Simontl]

Dear XORadmin,

I am trying to set up a way of externally jumping to next / previous sequencer row (with patterns on them).

Currently STRW only accept a hardcoded row number (RV00–RVFE). It would be very useful if it could accept a variable or row result as the destination row (perhaps a version of STRW under GLOB) – similar to how SLCT can select a track dynamically via VA..VP or RW00..RW45.

This would allow building a simple next/previous row navigator in mapping using a counter variable incremented/decremented by a button press, making live performance navigation much more flexible.

Thanks for considering!

Additionally, it would be very useful to have a mapping source that returns whether a sequencer row has patterns assigned.

A source like RHAS (Row Has Assigned Patterns) that returns a value 1-8 reflecting how many patterns the targeted sequencer row has assigned, and 0 if it is empty. This would allow conditional navigation – only jumping to a row if it actually has content, making it possible to skip empty rows automatically when navigating forward or backward through the sequencer.

1. STRW is can already be controlled with a variable as the source defines the Row to start (and the defined track is flexible, too). This can happen by a variable or whatever. Combine the use with XMAP rows which would limit the 'executions'. (eg on a 'fire', read the variable. execute the strw command.

2. Are you talking about external control here? Because for local control how would you be able to edit all fields then (for example)?
