Control Key Macro

To use this function, you must have a macro that you have already recorded and saved. Your macro must be designed to work based on where you press Ctrl+F12 since it will load and execute your macro immediately.

Please refer to Help topic, How to Use Macros for help building your macro.

ENABLE CTRL+F12 MACRO

Switch this ON with a check mark to enable the hot key combination Ctrl+F12 to load and execute the macro displayed in the Macro File field.

You must select a macro file. Ctrl+F12 does nothing if you do not enter the name of a valid macro file in the Macro File field.

Macro File

Enter the name of a valid macro file in this field. By default, Collect! looks in the Collect\bin folder for macro files. You can also enter a full path or use the BROWSE button to locate your macro file.

Macro files in Collect! are stored with an *.mac extension.

Browse

Select the BROWSE button to locate the macro file that you want to execute when the Ctrl+F12 hot key combination is pressed. By default, Collect! stores *.mac files in the Collect\bin folder but you can navigate to wherever your macros are stored.

Macro files in Collect! are stored with an *.mac extension.
