Projects

A Project contains a collection of menus and macros to perform a specific set of workflow procedures.

They can be created to automate a particular task, or to control a specific application, or a combination thereof.

You may, for example, have one project file that contains all your menus and macros and use a menu / macro naming convention that identifies their usage.

Alternatively, you may have a project file per application to be associated with the workflow requirements of a particular application.

A macros action exists to load a project file such that they can be loaded during the workflow process, allowing projects to be switched within macros. This allows you, for example, to create an onscreen menu that could be used to invoke individual projects as required.

Once a project file is created, you use the Menu and Macro editors to populate the project with the desired menus and macros required to automate your system or application tasks.

Projects are then saved to be activated (opened) as required.

Any number of projects can be active. One of the active projects can be tagged as the focused project, such that the project is automatically loaded into the editors when invoked, to allow changes to be made to the menus or macros, or to adjust control settings.

Project files are created from the File menu, or Menu Bar Item, New Project option:

Projects that contain a set of menus and macros to control a specific application, are also referred to as a library file
