### 2.3 Macro action
|
||||
***TBD***
|
||||
`Macro` actions allow you to register a complex sequence of keystrokes when a key is pressed, where macros are simple sequences of keypresses.
|
||||
|
||||
`Macro` action indicates complex key strokes.
|
||||
ACTION_MACRO(id)
|
||||
ACTION_MACRO_TAP(id)
|
||||
|
||||
MACRO( D(LSHIFT), D(D), END )
|
||||
MACRO( U(D), U(LSHIFT), END )
|
||||
MACRO( I(255), T(H), T(E), T(L), T(L), W(255), T(O), END )
|
||||
`id` is an 8-bit user-defined value the macro getter function can use to pick the specific macro.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2.3.1 Macro Commands
|
||||
- **MACRO()**
|
||||
- **MACRO_NONE**
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2.3.1 Implementing Macro getter function
|
||||
To implement `macro` functions, the macro lookup list must be implemented:
|
||||
|
||||
const macro_t *action_get_macro(keyrecord_t *record, uint8_t id, uint8_t opt);
|
||||
|
||||
The function must always return a valid macro, and default implementation of `action_get_macro` always returns `MACRO_NONE` which has no effect.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2.3.1.1 Limitations
|
||||
Similar to the Function Action system, the selector functions is passed a `keyrecord_t` object, so it can inspect the key state (e.g. different macros on key press or release), and key itself.
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike the Function Action system,`macros` are pre-recorded key sequences, so you can only select from a list. If you want to use dynamic macros then you should look at the more complex function action system.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2.3.2 Implementing/Defining Macro sequences
|
||||
Macros are of the form (must be wrapped by the `MACRO` function, and end with an `END` mark)
|
||||
|
||||
MACRO( ..., END )
|
||||
|
||||
Within each macro, the following commands can be used:
|
||||
|
||||
- **I()** change interval of stroke.
|
||||
- **D()** press key

- **SM()** store modifier state
|
||||
- **RM()** restore modifier state
|

- **CM()** clear modifier state
|
||||
- **END** end mark
|

|
||||
e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
MACRO( D(LSHIFT), D(D), END ) // hold down LSHIFT and D - will print 'D'
|
||||
MACRO( U(D), U(LSHIFT), END ) // release U and LSHIFT keys (an event.pressed == False counterpart for the one above)
|

MACRO( I(255), T(H), T(E), T(L), T(L), W(255), T(O), END ) // slowly print out h-e-l-l---o
