keyboardmacrosrazer-keyboard

I'm trying to make a macro for my blackwidow keyboard, which has to be executed until i press a different button. Can anyone tell me how to do this, or how tp stop a macro from being executed halfway?

You could try Razer Synapse 2.0 select Keyboard > Customize then click on key with macro assigned and in popup window Key Assigment set Playback Option as Toggle continuous playback on/off using assigned key.

It will stop/interrupt your macro by pressing the same key by which it was started.

P.S. Should say about one drawback of the described above method: the macro script will be running forever until you stop it.

How to Search and Replace in a Notepad++ Macro

Yes you can, I just tried to record a new macro, did a search and replace and it successfully saved the action so when I played the macro, it did the same search and replace action.

I am not an expert at Notepad++ Macros, but I am guessing you are... I opened a random file and created a macro called test. It looked for a word called "snip" and replaced it with "blaa".

Opening up the shortcuts.xml file after closing Notepad++ reveals this new macro:

<Macro name="test" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0">
    <Action type="3" message="1700" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" />
    <Action type="3" message="1601" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="snip" />
    <Action type="3" message="1625" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="" />
    <Action type="3" message="1602" wParam="0" lParam="0" sParam="blaa" />
    <Action type="3" message="1702" wParam="0" lParam="768" sParam="" />
    <Action type="3" message="1701" wParam="0" lParam="1608" sParam="" />
</Macro>

This is tested and works on my machine, I can manually modify this file and the changes get reflected and work in Notepad++.

Please note however, the shortcuts.xml file (located in your Appdata folder), only gets loaded and saved on opening/exiting Notepad++.

Mac – How to add a macro in Notepad++

Here is the rather simple method (simple once you find it anyway... it's not in the "Macro" menu):

From the top menu, select "Settings" => "Shortcut Mapper..."
Scroll down near the very bottom (my macros started at item 60)
Right-click and select either Modify or Delete (double click will act the same as selecting Modify)
