Add hotkeys to play next and previous regions

I apologize I read a couple of requests that may be slightly similar but not sure.

In Ardour you can select a region by clicking on it with mouse and then hit “H” key to just play that region.

There seem to be many hotkeys that move the playhead to region beginning / end, etc. but I don’t think the following two exist.
I am suggesting maybe can add two new hotkeys actions.
-Select next region (based on currently selected region) and play that region
-Select previous region (based on currently selected region) and play that region

As mentioned above these both select the next or previous region and then play that selected region.

Not sure if any other users would find this useful / if this would be considered to be added to Ardour.

Thank You

I would greatly appreciate this too. However there is a workaround, I wrote a couple of scripts that do this and you can assign them to shortcut keys - ardour-scripts/A7 at master · davidhealey/ardour-scripts · GitHub

Thank you for agreeing with my request, hopefully others will as well.
Also thank you for providing these scripts, I have not had a chance to try yet, but I just want to make sure I thanked you just in case it took me a little while to figure this out.

Hopefully this will be considered to be added to the program itself at some point.
