USEFUL COMMON MACROS
A macro is a multi-action sequence triggered by a single pedal action. Typically these are keyboard action
sequences, but multiple mouse actions can be combined also (see Default double click macro sample
below). Even keyboard and mouse actions can be combined where supported by the operating system. For
example, ctrl-click may be useful.
Note: If the pedal is held down, macros do not repeat like a single key would.
Default double left mouse button macro (middle pedal, “mpedal”)
This left mouse button double-click macro is in the default pedals.txt file, assigned to the middle pedal. It
includes a 125 millisecond delay between clicks, which is typically required. For more information on
inserting delays into macros, see “ADVANCED PROGRAMMING FEATURES FOR MACROS” above.
{mpedal}>{-lmouse}{+lmouse}{125}{-lmouse}{+lmouse}
Macros for standard shifted actions of keys
Number row shifted actions for US keyboard layout. Examples shown are for left pedal. The “Shift” action is
placed on either side of the key action to be shifted. You can copy and paste these examples to the
pedals.txt file.
Note: Either the number row “hyphen” and “+” keys or the keypad minus and plus keys may be used as the
“down action” and “release” indicator.
