Adding New System Macro

[drowles]

Is it possible to add a new system macro? I want a macro (or system macro) that allows me to bring up the ME Script editor with a new Macro already added. Basically, I would like to use a Hotkey shortcut (Ctrl +Shft + Alt + A) to add a new macro. How can this be done? Thanks in advance!

Even though system macros are internal to Macro Express and cannot be added, you can still create a normal macro to do the same thing. And you can use what ever hotkey you want. Ctrl+Alt+Shft+A will work just fine. I also suggest that you scope the macro to the Macro Explorer window so that it will not fire at the wrong time.

Delay 250 Milliseconds
If Window Title "- Macro Explorer" is on top
 Activate Window: "- Macro Explorer"
 Delay 250 Milliseconds
 Keystroke Speed: 35 Milliseconds
 Text Type: <ALT>ma
 Wait For Window Title: "Add Macro"
 Delay 250 Milliseconds
 Repeat Start (Repeat 7 times)
   Text Type: <TAB>
 Repeat End
 Delay 250 Milliseconds
 Text Type: n<TAB><ENTER>
End If
