I am trying to create a macro to grab stills and save them in Frame Memory easily.  I figured out how to have it call up the Frame Memory menu page, but I also want it to tap certain buttons on that page.  Is there a way a macro can learn menu button taps?

As long as you're on software 7.2 or newer, you have the ability to create "Menu Macros" that can be embedded in regular switcher macros or macro timelines.  As you create the menu macro, it will learn the menus and button-taps as you go.  If you are comfortable creating regular switcher macros, the menu macro concept will come very naturally to you. 

 

**Word of warning, menu macros can take as long as 20 frames to execute.**
