Macros Window Pane

This window pane lets you manipulate Macros and Macro Groups, creating new ones, deleting old ones, enabling and disabling them and so on.

You get this window pane by launching Keyboard Maestro and clicking the Macros tab.

Macros Window Pane

The window pane contains a list of Macro Groups and their associated Macros.

You can create a new Macro Group by clicking the New Macro Group button. A sheet will appear allowing you to enter the name of the group and choose the applications in which the group’s Macros should be active. Typically a group’s Macros would be active everywhere (All Applications), or it might be specific to a particular application (Only these Applications) in which case you might name the Macro Group after the application.

You can create a new Macro by clicking the New Macro button. A Macro Editor window will appear and allow you to define your new Macro. The new Macro will be created in the same Macro Group as you currently have selected, or the Global Macro Group if no item is selected.

You can rename or change an entry (Macro or Macro Group) by double clicking it, or delete it by selecting it and pressing the Delete key. You can only delete empty Macro Groups and you cannot delete or rename the Global Macro Group.
