Question: For a control surface and using `bool GetTouchState(MediaTrack *media_track, int is_pan)` tousch automation, this will only work for volume and pan. Is there a way to make it also work for any other param? As these now work in Latch mode

    for FX parameters I don't think it's supported, we need to add the ability to end the touch I think.

    That would be great if that could be possible, but beside the FX parameters I also can not find a way to make it work with any other parameter beside volume and pan/left pan as these are the only 2 options passed for the second argument. But as a possible solution wouldn't it make sense to let the control surface control both? So when in touch mode and touch starts, the control surface tells REAPER touch is starting and the other way around. Possible arguments should be `track`, `envelope name`, `on/off`.

    That way it would be possible to add touch automation for any param, which would be really welcoming for both me as all other control surface users

    For width/dualpan-r, is_pan=2, you can implement that. for FX parameters, will look at extending some API for "done"-ing.

    oops the "done" state change already exists, obviously I missed it, TrackFX_EndParamEdit etc

    TrackFX_EndParamEdit indeed did the trick. Thanks for that. is_pan==2 is not working somehow, tried it with bot stereo pan and dual pan. Added a ShowConsoleMessage in GetTouchState, but no 2 showing up. Beside this would is make sense also have a TrackSend_EndEdit for at leaste volume and pan?
