FL Pianoroll Tool - Scripts

What script do?​

Piano roll tools let you use a custom script to manipulate the piano roll.

If you have used Quantizer (Alt+Q), Quick Legato (CTRL+L), these are built in scripts developed by ImageLine.

Example: Note counter 

## noteCounter.pyscript

import flpianoroll as flp

def createDialog():
    # Count the number of selected notes
    count = 0
    for n in range(flp.score.noteCount):
        note = flp.score.getNote(n)
        if note.selected:
            count += 1
            
    # Create the dialog with the count message
    title = "Selected Notes Counter"
    description = f"Number of selected notes: {count}"
    form = flp.ScriptDialog(title, description)
    return form

def apply(form):
    # This function is called when the dialog is closed by the user
    # No action is needed as we're only displaying information
    pass

How do I make my own script?​

  • Look for the directory containing piano roll scripts. Typically C:/Program Files/Image-Line/FL Studio 2024/System/Config/Piano roll scripts/
  • Create a .pyscript file with the script logic
  • CTRL+S and it should update to your FL piano roll scripts options.
  • So far, debugging can only be done from the DAW by selecting the script and attempt to run it.
