Hot key not working for Rob's WebSearch


For some reason I had an old version of this macro and now with new version the hot key doesn't trigger the macro. The hot key shown is the one I used before. The macro runs if I click the Run button in KM.

Maybe I'm supposed to set the hot key somewhere else?

I installed by double clicking __ Web Search via Shortcut 3.3 Macros.kmmacros

Isn't the "__ Web Search..." group DISABLED?

Yep, looks disabled to me, too.

Is this what you're referring too?

Thanks for your help

Yes, the macro group isn't enabled—first checkbox on the far right panel.

Duh

The box on my computer is so light I wasn't seeing it. But still I should have seen the "Enable Macro Group."

Thanks all

Except Rob has a complex (to me anyway) macro and the macro group enabling and hot key are set in different places.

I don't know KM well enough to have any idea how this macro works.

But thanks to the both of you for this power.

This is always true of any macro: The group is enabled separately from the hot key for the macro(s) in the group.
