I have a macro group that shows clipboard filters. I want it to stay open all the time. But when I click a button to run a macro, the palette disappears and I need to re-run it get it to show up again.
z Show Palette of Clipboard Macros Macro (v11.0.3)
I'm not sure if that's possible with the Show Palette of Macros action, but since it looks like you're using the palette to call a group of macros, instead of using this macro to call the palette, you could try changing the group settings from Always activated. to Shows/hides a palette when:. That will ensure the palette stays open until you dismiss it.
Yeah it would be very nice if there was a way to have it activate when you activate an app or something like that even if you close it. There are some updates that could be done with palettes that have been discussed in other threads. Hopefully they can get some more attention in a future update.
I did not know about that setting, and discovering it solved my problem because I was able to just use the filter group as the palette. I was not aware that the item that said "Always Activated" was actually a default and that this is a settings menu. Applying Shows/hides a palette when to the macro group is actually what I needed!
