Hello Peter (@peternlewis)
First of all a thank you for diving in.
As you heave read my post about the issue I have with the Enable/Disable Action, you know how my Macros tend to help me do my stuff. This means I have a ton of background activity going on from time to time which I want to have under control…. I use the Cancel All Macros Action absolutely only as it is intended to be used and I develop all macros with absolute confidence based on my knowledge as long I am sure to integrate it fully in to my workflow.
What I want is to create a macro that relies on the alternative form of the Action where you can choose a specific instance, so that I don’t to cancel my background macros until I think it is really necessary to do so because its a lot of time consuming work like restarting to continue on my projects like saving the files, closing the apps, related Finder Folders etc and then reopen them to get the macros back on work I need to have.
For the emergency I really need to cancel all my running macros I tend to build it into based on a long press which should first pause all macros and give me a list and a todo list in reminders what to do to get everything back like I want to and then use this action to cancel all up.
Hope this makes everything more clear to you now.
