Hi!
Using Keyboard Maestro 10.2.
New to KM and run into some interesting challenges. I've done a fair amount of Googling before posting this. I created a macro on Monterey which worked flawlessly, only with a few tweaks.
However, there are some differences I'd like a bit of help with:
-
KM cannot click sub menu item right after start of target application. It's as if the menu item doesn't exist yet. I tried to manually massage the top menu item by clicking it, then it works. Now I do the same in KM (see below), and it works, but wondering if there's a way to avoid this life-hack? This worked great in Monterey version of Logic (that is, a newer version). I tried to fix it by configuring the Select item again, in case there were some underlying menu tokens that didn't translate between the two versions, but it didn't help.
-
Display progress doesn't show anything. I've tried different values, but never shows. I run a multi-monitor setup, might that influence it?
-
Cannot send a message through iMessage. The application starts, but seems like it has insufficient rights. If so, where do set up that KM should be able to send messages?
-
Probably more a Mac thing than KM or Logic. In Catalina, in a Save As dialog, the file name is selected and highlighted, which makes it easy to have KM type the desired name. In Monterey it is not. I life hacked it by pressing Tab 3 times, but it seems like an unnecessary way to do it. Is there a better way on Monterey?
