Macro Recorder Utility
« Thread started on: Jun 5th, 2009, 1:02pm »
The macro facility built into the BB4W IDE has never been very easy to use, because you have to write a program to create the macro (an example is SETTAB.BBC, included in the EXAMPLES\TOOLS folder).
I have written a simple Macro Recorder utility which allows you to record a sequence of keystrokes into a specified macro. If you need to perform any repetitive operation using the BB4W IDE (that can be carried out from the keyboard) this utility should be useful:
As is usual for add-in utilities you must run the program once in order to install it; thereafter you access the utility from the BB4W 'Utilities' menu. To remove the utility, or to move it to another 'slot', just run the program again. Alternatively you can use Malcolm Marten's 'Utilities Manager' for these tasks.
The only difference from v1.0 is that when you click on 'Record' the BB4W IDE window is automatically activated, reducing the likelihood that you'll start recording keystrokes whilst the input focus is still on the Macro Recorder window.
