###New Category: Palettes
Hey guys, I have updated the main topic post to ADD a new category: Palettes

I am not really qualified to pick macros for this category, so we really need your help. I have made a draft list to get us started, but please feel free to edit / add / delete based on your knowledge and experience with a given macro.

Thanks for your help.

Short, Simple, Example Macros

We have a tag named example which is used to tag those macros that are written specifically to provide an example of some feature and/or simple (partial) workflow. If you post such a macro, please tag with example

However, when clicking the link above, "View List of Example Macros", it results in:

Tagging moderators: @peternlewis @ccstone and @DanThomas...

I wanted to update Jim's post with the following entry under Keyboard Maestro Tools:

• Variable Inspector Prompt and Dictionary Editor – by @DanThomas

But it won't let me because it says "Sorry, you can only mention 10 users in a post." I feel like it would make a great addition. If y'all are in agreement, is there anyway one of y'all could add that bit into the post?

Thanks for considering!
