Right-click on the desktop on the upper left part, just above the recycle bin. So, a rough algorithm for this task would be:ĥ. It's way more accurate to click at the beginning of the first line, and press Shift+End to select the whole line because this will work the same on shorter and longer words.įor the same reason, we should cut with ctrl+X, instead of right-clicking and selecting 'Cut'. It is also best if we use keyboard shortcuts. This way, the Macro Creator will always copy the first line, and it will always get a different word. The end of our action must have prepared for the next repetition to run.įor example, instead of copying the word from notepad, we can cut it and press delete, so that the second word becomes the first.

This way, for this particular resolution, notepad will always be at the same place. If we don't do that, and we move a window, on a next repetition the Macro Creator will still use the old coordinates.įor this example, we will drag notepad to occupy the right half of the screen.

So, for the macro to work best, we need to make sure all the windows are at the same place. We must also make sure that every window on-screen is at the same place every time. You see, when we record a macro, the Macro Creator will remember the exact coordinates. This way we could scale it for twenty, fifty, a hundred, or theoretically infinite repetitions. The goal, for this example, is to record the creation of one text file with the Macro Creator and then repeat the macro for the rest of the lines to create the rest of the files.

The first thing we must do is make sure we record a minimum action that can be repeated. Plan the macroĮven a simple macro, such as this, needs some planning and some trial and error before it is perfected. This is a crude, and admittedly useless example, but it can showcase what the Macro Creator can do.
