Search function in the macro editor

Post by ~ufo~ » 08 Mar 2016 09:51

When you want to incorporate a menu item in a macro, it's pretty time consuming to scroll through all of the menu items before you get to the one you want.
It would be great if there was a search, better if there was a search that gives suggestions as you type.

Is there any chance of this?

Thanks!

You don't need to search through the list of menu items if you already know what you want to act on.
The syntax for the "PT Menu" Macro Command is pretty easy:
Menu>>subMenu>>...>>menuItem

You can type it directly in the "Menu Item:" Combo Box.

For example, you want to act on the View -> Clip -> Name PT menu, you will type:

Code: Select all

View>>Clip>>Name
However, search suggestions as you type would be a great added value.
Thanks for the suggestion!
