To record a macro from the toolbar or menu
1. Click the Record Macro button (
) or menu option on the Macros toolbar or the Tools menu. To indicate
that a recording operation is taking place the mouse cursor is modified to include the record icon (
). When
the macro is being recorded the Pause Macro (
) and Stop Macro ( ) buttons and menus are enabled. When
the macro is being recorded the pause and stop buttons (
) and menus are enabled.
2. If you are using a debugger that does not support the macro facility a warning is displayed that states the
following "Warning: The target does not support macros. Recording will be limited. Do you wish to
continue?". If you click yes the record operation will continue.
3. Recording will continue until you click Stop Macro. For details, see section 15.5, Functions that can be
recorded into macro files.
4. When Stop Macro is clicked a dialog is displayed that allows you to enter the macro name.
5. Clicking OK saves the name and adds it to the current macro file. Clicking cancel dismisses the dialog box
and loses the macro recording.
Another method is to launch the recording process via the Macro dialog box.
To record a macro from the macro dialog box
1. Select [Tools -> Macros]. The Macro dialog box opens.
2. Click the Record button. The Macro dialog box is dismissed and the recording operation begins.
