Does anyone know how to associate a keyboard shortcut for "Show/Hide Track" in Piano Roll View, for the currently selected track?
 

 
Currently I can only do it with mouse.

That would be handy, but I guess the shortcut wouldn't know which track you wanted to Show/Hide?

Yes. I agree the shortcut couldn't know which track but ...

For PRV that contain multiple tracks (I often have 10, 20, 30 in a PRV)
Untick the color of the track on the right to hide it
Hit "V" to invert the selection
Now you're only seeing one track

Hit "A" now you're seeing all tracks.

Yes, I know these shotcuts, (also "H" to hide all tracks) but it's still missing one keyboard shortcut to show/hide the current track.
I still have to use mouse and it becomes a boring repetitive operation when you have to turn on and off the current track several times using the mouse.

I can understand the requirement to Hide the current track, but to show it?
 
If it's already hidden, how does SONAR know which one you want to unhide?

I think I did not express myself properly.
Just to be clear, we are talking about PRV, right?
I have for example, 10 tracks open in PRV.
Let's say I'm trying to edit the midi track 3 (which is the track with the current focus).
On my keyboard, I have to press "H" to hide all tracks and then I have to click on the "Show / Hide" button (as the image of the post #1).
It would be easier if I could do everything via keyboard, for example, "H" and then any other custom key to show again only track that has the focus.
Or better yet, if there was a way to hide all tracks EXCEPT the current track.

Sorry, I missed the bit where you said PRV.
 
Nothing to see here.
 
Move along.

I did not understand how it can solve this topic?
