The Macro Designer View
The Macro Designer view of Image-Pro can be shown in the Scripting Explorer. The Macro Designer view displays a simplified graphical representation of the active macro's command sequence.
To show the Macro Designer view, click on the 'expand' bar in the Scripting Explorer panel to expand the view to show the macro designer panel. The graphical representation of the script makes it easy to interact with the script at a high level. It allows you to:
- Enable and disable specific operations
- Edit command parameters
- Create and edit breakpoints
- View/edit
macro variable definitions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To enable/disable specific operations:
Click on the check box to the left of the operation.
If unchecked, the operation is disabled. This means it will not be executed when the macro is run.
Right-click on the command you want to edit, and click Properties in the context window.
The properties for the selected operation will be shown in the Macro Properties Window below the script panel.

Position the mouse cursor to the left of the operation at which you want to set a break point, and click.
A red circle appears in the margin indicating that breakpoint is set at that location. Simply click on the red circle again to clear the breakpoint.
To view/edit variable definitions:
Click on the More link.
The expanded view of the script command sequence is displayed, showing
the variable selections for each command in the command sequence.
