OSC ClIP Name

Having Resolume send out the clip name of layer 1 via OSC, everything is going lovely via
/composition/layers/1/clips/name
Trigger clips and Resolume fires out the new clip name.
Great!
Whats interesting is that i can preview clips on other layers but if i preview a clip on layer 1 it fires out the name of that clip. I kinda expected previewing on layer 1 not to fire out the clip name of the preview clip.
Is this expected behavior or a bug?
I expected
/composition/selectedclip/name to send out when previewing a clip. But previewing on layer 1 sends out the
clip name on
/composition/layers/1/clips/name
Have screen shots of Touch Designer taking in the OSC commands below.(Just look at the first 4, can't get the forum to delete the others when they showed up out of order.)

Are you using the OSC output All preset?
If you use custom OSC preset, set the clip name OSC output to Selected clip, to get the name on select on the /selectedclip address

Let me know explain the behaviour I’m looking for,
I just want the triggered clip osc name, I do not want selected.
So my question is it expected behaviour for triggered and selected clip names to be sent out on the same osc address?
I’m getting triggered and selected on the same osc address. Shouldn’t they be on two separate addresses?

That depends on how you trigger the clips and how your OSC mapping looks like.
Could you share the preset with us?
What is the program you send OSC to, if it gets a clip launch message, can it send a reply back to ask for the clip name ?
Do you have update clip panel on external triggers enabled?

Just triggering with mouse and autopilot. OSC is only going out, it is not going in.
-The OSC mapping is literally only this value so i've attached a screen shot.
-It's going to touch designer as you can see in the screen shots above.
Right now i'm getting the clip names which is great, i'm just getting clip names on layer one for triggering and selecting.
I assumed
1./composition/layers/1/clips/name would send me the name of the triggered clip
2. /composition/selectedclip/name would send me a selected clip
Right now /composition/layers/1/clips/name is sending both trigger and selecting.
Thats why i'm asking if its a bug or expected behavior. Maybe if i'm looking at /composition/layers/clips/name this would give me the behavior i'm expecting. I'm just unsure how to enable that outgoing OSC command via the GUI.
