ACTUSERMESSAGE
Pauses for user input in an action macro.
RIBBON

Pause for User Input
Actions in an action macro can be modified to be played back with the values
they were recorded with or to pause for input during playback.
While recording an action macro, you might choose a point or provide input
that you do not want to use each time the action macro is played back. You
can toggle the behavior of a value node in the current action macro to pause
for input during playback. A value node might contain an acquired point,
text string, number, command option, or object selection. If an action macro
pauses for input, you can provide a new input value during playback.
To toggle the pause for input of a value during the playback of an action
macro.
1 On the ribbon, click Manage tab ➤ Action Recorder panel. Click the
down arrow next to the Action Macro list.
2 In the Action Macro list, select the action macro that contains the value
node that you want to pause for input during playback.
3 Expand the Action Recorder panel.
4 In the Action tree, right-click the value node and click Pause for User
Input.
