I am looking for a MIDI message to send Pro Tools via the HUI MIDI spec that will trigger PT to resend all track information (vol/mute/pan/automation state/track-name).
The HUI spec is not publicly available in it's entirety (though theageman has released some of it). Does anyone know if a MIDI message like this exists? I want to send a message that will trigger pro tools to resend all current track info of the currently selected tracks.

You could send the "SYSTEM RESET" message to ProTools which should make it resend the current HUI display state but you would need to interpret the replay - which is in the form of display and fader information
But that may be what you are trying to do ?
You could also try lopping through the "Zone" or "next track" messages to get further info
Good luck - let us know how you get on

The HUI protocol is only a WYSIWYG display system
in that it:
SENDS actions by the user
GETS display information
