Description and Usage

The purpose of the Macro Shortcut Action is to create small macros which can be triggered by a keyboard shortcut. The Macro Shortcut Action is a Container Action, i.e. it could contain other actions which will be executed when the defined keyboard shortcut is pressed.

With the Macro Shortcut Action you can easily trigger a series of other actions, e.g. to fill in a form and submit it. this would be achived with a number of Modify Actions in combination with a Click Action on the sumbit button at the end.

Edit Dialog

Key Combination

Just press the key combination you wish. The following keys must be selected via the dropmarker next to the edit field: "Enter/Return", "Tab", "Shift+Tab", "Escape", "Backspace". You can clear the edit field with the backspace key.

In this field you can enter a string or character combination which will trigger the action. E.g. you can enter "LO" to trigger the logout button. Of course short strings will not work while the focus is within an editable field.
