This macro allows you to execute any other Hot Keyboard macro
(including a link to another macro). The main purpose of making
such a kind of macro is that you can create one macro and then
refer to it anywhere else, but when you change the original macro,
your changes instantly affect all macros that refer to it.
Action Parameters:
Macro to run - the full macro name and path (including
the menu names where it resides) are shown here. Please note that
you cannot edit it directly. Instead, to set a macro that this macro
will refer to, click the "..." button located to the right of this
field. The macro selection dialog appears:
After you select a macro, its description will be shown to the
down of its full name, so you can check that you have selected the
right macro.
Usage ideas:
- If you use Hot Keyboard to automate the login process into
different sites where you use the same password, you can
create one macro that will simulate password entering and
then refer to it everywhere you need this password.
So, when you change your password, you will have to correct
one single macro only. Also, please note that storing your passwords
in Hot Keyboard is not secure, but if you feel that you need it,
the Record/Play
macro is recommended in favour of the Paste text
one (since Paste text macro stores its data as plaintext but
the Record/Play one stores keystrokes what makes them difficult
to read).
