Macro Group ,Failure abort macro

Hello everyone

Please, I need your knowledge to help me.

I have several macros grouped together in a row.
If the first macro in group 1 fails, is there any way to ignore all the macros in that group and move on to the macro in group 2?

Also, for example, if I go to group 1 and then group 2, and macro 1 of group 3 fails, is there a way to ignore all the macros in that group and go to group 2?
Is there a way to jump to the next group action?

I've been working on a macro for a long time and found myself stuck at the beginning and wasting time, so I wanted to ignore it and move on.

Thank you in advance for your help.

RYO.

There might be better solutions, but the one I can think of is to use embedded condition actions, with the %ActionResult% token as condition.

Hi! martin

Thanks for the quick reply.
I tried it and it worked.
Thank you very much for your help. Very nice.

I didn't know about this method.
I've only tried it as you said and I don't understand it at all...
When I skipped group 2, an alert appeared in the upper right corner.
Is this a macro for verification? What exactly is it used for?

By the way, if I get alerts for more than one group, is there any way I can see the history of these alerts?

Thanks.

It‘s better to post a screenshot so that others can see what you are talking about.
My guess is it is a notification on failure.
Just uncheck "Notify on Failure" as we..
