Details

Request for simplification of Macro launch and use. 1) Allow a one button or menu item to launch a user-predefined macro, e.g a send or receive file macro, such that one does not need to select macro file in file dialog, as that often means scrolling through folders to find macro file. It would be acceptable to me if this feature were hard coded to predefined macro names, but it would be nice for the entry to have user defined name. 2) Allow several macros to be selected in this way , e.g. favourites.

3) If the Macro, e.g. for xmodem file upload, requires a file name as input, that the last used folder is remembered to minimise user action on frequent use of macro feature.

That would be wonderful. See also tickets #35287 and #39337 I'm using Macros a lot and are always disappointed to search through the file open dialog.
