Macros and Menu Buttons

SkidAce

After reading this, and noting that the recommended method is to create a hotspot on the map, does that mean you cannot add a MACRO to a button on the menu like you can a COMMAND?

I've tried and tit not working so I suspect I know the answer.

Macros can be added to menu buttons just like any other command. In fact, many of the commands on the existing buttons are actually macros, and not built-in commands.

In general, the advice to make a hotspot is usually in connection with making a macro that is intended for a single map/map style. You generally don't want to fill your toolbar with rarely used buttons.

Thanks, I was doubting myself...and in the end it was me...different "syntax" for macros.
