5. Macro Editor and Commands
Macros can contain Commands or Scripts, however, they are not keystroke recorders. Macros Commands are very
powerful, user-definable routines that the PaletteOS runs when assigned to cues, time events, macro buttons,
variables or triggers.
Note: If you need more advanced show-control automation and logical branching, refer to "Macro Editor and
Scripts" in the PaletteOS software Help Menu.
When a Command is assigned to the Cue Action of a cue, the macro icon will appear in the Action column.
You can add a Command to a cue by moving the blue box to the Action column and pressing [Insert]. A Cue Action
dialogue box will open:
Click on Macro or press [S5] to add a Macro Command. The Macro Editor will appear.
The main [S11] tab on the left should be set to Command, showing the commands available in the list under [S1].
Press the softkey until the desired command is highlighted, then press [S3] to insert it into the list on the right. The
Edit Macro dialogue box will open.
Note: You can double click on any available macro to add it to the list. [SHIFT] [S1] will move backwards through
the list of macros.
