Display Progress Example Macro (v10.0)

Macro Library
1

I have tried to make an example of how I could use the new Display Progress action in KM 10.

So first I define a variable with the items I want to iterate over. This could be files selected in the Finder or lines in the clipboard or other things.

I then calculate what percent one item is equal to.

And in the For Each I do my action and then increment the progress bar with the percent of one item.

But I wonder if this is the thinking behind how to use it?
Because it involves a bit more actions to define what is used in the progress bar, but again it needs some kind of data to display it.

I built a similar macro that I am hoping to be able to call as a subroutine and have it trigger between each action.

But I can't figure out if there's a way to trigger a subroutine between each action without manually inserting it. 🤷🏻

I also plan to see if it is viable for me to look at the new subroutine capabilities. So it would be possible to have one main progress bar macro.
