I wish to create a macro that would lowercase and then highlight the pasted in text.
I can’t quite figure out how to do the highlighting part. If I insert a text in a new line then I could use ⌘ + ⇧ + ← but I can insert it here too :
And then hotkey won’t work.
What do you mean by "highlight"?
- Selected
- Background color

Yeah I meant selecting the text after pasting it.
There is no good solution for this.
With many editors, if you undo and then redo it will select the last change, so:
Paste, Undo, Redo
Might work for your usage.
The only other way would be
- Paste
- Repeat CHARACTERS(%SystemClipboard%)
And that will be slow and relatively likely to give inaccurate results.
But I can’t think of any other way, so it’s worth a shot.
