Hello, I just learned about smart groups and how to use them in Trigger Macro by Name action. I have a smart group that displays macros used in the last 5 minutes. But the smart group result is shown in alphabetical order. Is it possible to sort the smart group result by date used? Thanks! [ima…

[image] Nige_S: Then you are going to have to use AS or JXA to build your list OK, so not as difficult as I thought! Here's a version that does your "Edited in the last 3 days". By default it executes the chosen macro, if you hold down ⌥ while selecting a macro it will open it for editing in…

[image] ChrisQ: Is it possible to sort the smart group result by date used? Hi, @ChrisQ . Yes, this is a built-in feature of the Keyboard Maestro editor: View > Sort macro by > Date Used (⌃⌘E). I've shared two related macros that you might find useful: Sort Macros Conditionally Toggle S…

I'm using Trigger Macro by Name action to retrieve the smart group's result, so the KM Editor is not used for sorting. I have 3 macros and would like the results to be sorted like this: Used 5 mins ago (smart group result sorted by Last Used) Edited 3 days ago (smart group result sorted by last M…

Maybe this is a candidate for a feature request? @peternlewis

Appreciate the solution @Nige_S . However, my main use case is the run the macro from smart group's result list. On occasions when I want to edit the macro, it opens KM Editor to that chosen macro. I try not to change the KM Editor's sort order for macros. I saw this post N most recently run macros …

[image] ChrisQ: However, my main use case is the run the macro from smart group's result list. Yes -- and from the Editor you can select a macro and run it with either the "Run" button, File -> Run Macro, or with a shortcut (⌘R for me, you might have to set your own in System Settings or with…

Hi @Nige_S , I'm getting this error in the KM engine when running the macro. 2024-11-28 17:26:54 Execute macro “Modified in Last 3 Days” from trigger Editor 2024-11-28 17:26:54 Action 16399067 failed: Execute an AppleScript failed with script error: text-script:34:76: script error: Invalid date and…

[image] ChrisQ: I'm getting this error in the KM engine when running the macro. I had similar when setting it up. Try editing the AppleScript action, replacing: set baseDate to date "Thursday 1 January 1970 at 00:00:00" ...with: set baseDate to date "1/1/1970" KM will recompile the AS an…

The creation date and modification date both work perfectly. They match exactly what KM Editor is showing when sorted by creation date or modification date. However, the used date does not match what KM Editor is showing. set macroList to every macro of smart group "All Macros" whose used date > (…
