How to let record button follows mouse selection on different tracks,
for e.g., select track 8 and then track 8 is enabled for rec, then select track 10 then track 8 is not enabled for rect but track 10 is enable for rec.

All these many posts you are making, and asking for all these things - have you been able to do them on any other DAW?

Though I can understand that desire, what a nightmare that would be. If I wanted to view one track while recording another, I'd be driven nuts by the record enabled tracks moving. It would also cause lots of problems because MIDI note-offs would have to revert to previously enabled tracks. What a mess.

In the graphic editor, you do have record enable buttons.

You CAN put lots of channels into over-dub record (via multi-record option), then channelize your incoming MIDI channel to change which track is "listening".

If you are talking about Audio, that is a deeper level of nightmare.

Setting up some key commands to go in/out of record, and others to shift to next/previous record enabled track (defaults to up/down arrows on Mac) can make that process pretty streamlined.

You can do this in other some other DAWs. Input following selection is a concept that's been around since the Amiga days.

I don't know how to do this in DP though.

edit: Looks like if you have 1 track record enabled, you can move that record-enable to another track by using the up/down arrow keys. That is pretty close to what's being asked I think.
