Pause until key press?

@troy

I would now like to 'Pause until any keystroke' within a macro. - I'm sure it's possible but don't 'see' it easily.

I think your question has been answered in the above posts, particularly:

Pause until key press?

OK, given that you want to also capture the keystroke, it may be simpler, better, to use something like this: MACRO A The initial macro that starts your workflow. Does whatever you want until you want it to “pause” for any keystroke. Then it would enable Macro B, and exit. MACRO B Is initially disabled, until enabled by Macro A. Has a typed string trigger of \. If you can restrict your keystroke to letters or numbers that would be better You could then use \w (any letter or number) …

As clearly stated by @peternlewis:

So there are no Pause Until [state change] options (clipboard changed, window changed, key state changed, modifiers changed, mouse moved, etc).

But I think you are making this unduly hard on yourself. Why not just wait for a large, easy to reach key is pressed? Oh yeah, we have one. The SPACEBAR:

The SHIFT key is also a favorite, so you could add it:

Of course, you could just keep adding The key conditions until you have all of them entered, but what mess.
