About Macros
When you store Tools or Tools and text together, you are making a macro. A macro is just a set
of instructions that tell your device to do something. Macros are often used as shortcuts for tasks
that normally require a number of key activations.
When you store a Tool on your overlay you are creating a basic macro. You can also create and
store macros that tell your device to do a lot more than just allow you to activate a Tool. You
can create macros that change your speaking voice in the middle of a sentence and then return it
to normal. You can create macros that involve changes in menu settings so that you don't have
to go to the Toolbox to change settings.
You can assign macros to keys on your overlay or you can store them under icon sequences.
