Broadcast example

Instead of searching for a command in multiple tabs, you create a button for a repeated action. The name of the button should immediately explain what it will trigger.

Action and possibilities

Your own button

Give it a name and select one of the supported actions, e.g. alert, TTS or timer control. Depending on the action, enter the content.

Starting up

The macro calls an existing tool, so its target function must be enabled. The macro does not bypass the limits and settings of this function.

Tidying up

Remove buttons you don't use and keep a repeatable set in your setup. Global PC program shortcuts are a separate function from the macropanel buttons.
