How to change parameter in a Macro using the Dialog

Post by oliverbr84 » Tue Jul 09, 2019 3:20 pm

Good morning,
First of all I did some research and was unable to find what I was looking for.

What I am trying to do:

So I created a dialog and inserted a button to run a Macro.
Now I'd like to create another button to change a "parameter" within that macro, is it possible?

Diagog Example:
[ RUN MACRO(#1) ] - [ Download (#2)]

#1 - Runs Macro (This I know how to do)
#2 - I'd like it to change a parameter within that macro, for example:
- Original Macro "Line 1" has "MouseMove>1300,400", I want it to change to "MouseMove>1500,600" whenever I activate button #2

Thanks in advance!

Are they compiled as exe or are they plain macro files?

Look at the topic Command Line Options in the help file. This shows how you can pass parameters as variables into macros when you run them.
