Whether you are a power user or a grandparent (or both!), your time is precious. So why waste it when Keyboard Maestro can help improve almost every aspect of using your Mac. Even the simplest things, like typing your email address, or going to Gmail or Facebook, launching Pages, or duplicating a line, all take time and add frustration. Let Keyboard Maestro help make your Mac life more pleasant and efficient.
Share your macros across multiple Macs using Dropbox or other file sharing services. You can disable different Macro Groups or adjust your macro behaviour on each Mac.
Write your own Plug In Actions to extend Keyboard Maestro in ways we haven’t yet covered (if you can find any). Then easily package them and distribute them to your friends.
Everything is styled text now. Insert styled text, apply filters to styled text, have tokens in styled text, apply styles to clipboards. Man, do we have style or what?
Trigger a macro when you plug in a USB device. This is fantastic with ScanSnap scanners, open them up and the ScanSnap software launches automatically.
Trigger a macro when your wireless network changes. Perhaps the new Set Network Location action would be useful with this?
Press a hot key, and then type in part of a macro name. Quick and easy for those infrequently used macros.
Use the same hot key with a bunch of macros, and then let Keyboard Maestro filter the list down to one with a few keys.
Step through macros one action at a time to see where you and the system disagree on what to do next. Or just watch the actions flow by.
OK, so it is a bit like putting lipstick on a pig, but Keyboard Maestro 6 includes retina friendly graphics and a beautiful new icon from Iconaholic.
Now you can control your web browser, make new windows and tabs, fill in and submit forms, click links and even execute JavaScript.
And if for some bizarre reason you don’t like the new icon, you can customize it yourself and easily share your status menu icons with other users.
And with over a hundred other improvements, there is bound to be something for everyone.
Launch any application at the touch of a key. Show applications, hide them, bring them to the front, all at your command.
Insert any kind of text. Keyboard Maestro can type it in for you, or it can paste in styled text or images. Easily insert your name, address, logo, signature, whatever.
Use all sorts of expressive tokens like today's date in any format, window positions, wireless networks, Safari document URL and much more.
Keyboard Maestro keeps a complete history of your clipboards, so you’ll never lose your clipboard again. Copy three things, then paste them all into another application.
Move, click, double click and drag, any button, optionally with modifiers anywhere on the screen or in a window, and more.
Resize, reposition, bring to front, close, zoom, minimize and more. Position windows exactly where you want them.
Press a button, select a menu, and now you can show a menu leaving it open for you to select the desired item.
Play a specific song or playlist, play, pause or stop, rewind or fast forward, set the rating or the volume. And similarly for QuickTime Player.
Display macros in palettes (like toolbars) so you can easily select from a number of options. Make your own custom interfaces.
Show Keyboard Maestro how to do something. You can also record Quick Macros on the fly for immediate playback.
Open a file, folder, application, URL, system preference pane, the current Finder selection or even the CD tray.
Keyboard Maestro can show notifications, display alerts, prompt for extra information, beep, speak, or play a sound.
Execute AppleScripts, or shell scripts like perl, python or ruby. Execute Automator workflows, or filter your clipboard with BBEdit Text Factories.
Use While or Until loops, For Each loops, Repeat loops, If Then Else conditionals, Pause Until and other powerful constructs.
Move, copy, rename, trash, delete files. Read and write images and styled text in a variety of formats.
Screen capture, find an image on the screen, flip, rotate, resize, trim, crop images and even draw shapes and text.
