    Great tutorial Alex!
    I’ve wanted to use macros for awhile now, I feel like I have some basic knowledge now to write my own.

    01:21 didn't know you could scroll through presets like this before (using the up and down arrows)... Nice !

    Great video.
    Don’t know really how to address this question but what’s the best way to learn MA language?

      That's a tough one. For me the answer was the same as any programing language. Immerse yourself in it. My advice is just keep breaking and testing things

      The best way for me is programming a lot of shows (even of i dont neet them) and writing a lot of handy macro's.
      The more time you spend behind a console or onpc the beter you lern it. Peaple like alex have a lot of good videos to lern from to!

      I would say looking at the command line feedback when you do things, to see what your actions look like in terms of command line.

    02:04 Do you know if there is a way to select and copy text from the command line (to paste it somewhere else later on, to create a macro, or in a text file or something) ?

    Hi Alex. I am making a macro that programs my groups that are always the same. Like groups for my odd even bumbs. I want to do this with MAtricks.
    My line is:
    Group "spots" MAtricks 1; store group "odd" /o
    But it does not store the MAtricks selection it stores the complete group do you know whats wrong??

    • @basvanderzouwen2193
      @basvanderzouwen2193 Před 5 lety

      Solved! Oh had to be: group "spots" ; MAtricks "1 of 2" ; store group "spots 1/2" /o

      Remember what I said. ; runs commands at the same time. As a result there is nothing to select. Try splitting it into three lines..
      I ran a test here is my exact macro (start with numbers to test your syntax)
      ClearAll (Just to make sure nothing else is selected)
      Group 1
      MAtricks 4
      Store Group 10
      With variables you could get it to store what you wanted

      I almost have a working macro! :) but one line still wont work its compleatly the same as the others. But it dont store a group but it stores an empty ceu in the sellected executor.
