![]() ![]() ![]() I’ve tried to use KM with or without 1Password to get one click access to websites and found it too difficult. ![]() Watch the movie and tell me what ya think. That level of accessibility, as far as I'm aware, is unparalleled. One click - no fancy maneuvering of the mouse - just click at a stable location and I'm logged in to the KM forum. Whereas, in Butler, anytime, I just click the mouse once on the static F - and the macro executes. To launch firefox and go to the KM forum and then log in, i simply have to click that "F." As far as I'm aware, the closest you can come to that level of accessibility in KM alone is the status menu and even here, after you you click it (status menu), there's a fair amount of visual motor movement that has to be executed to slide down to the correct macro group and over to the sought after macro. If my computer is on, that F will be there. The part that Butler contributes is as follows.Ī static "F" (for Forum) sits in (what Butler calls) the docklet, at the right side of my screen. When you click it, you'll watch a 20 second movie of a macro I wrote that (a) launches firefox, (b) goes to this forum and (c) logs me in. If you have a moment (20 seconds, to be exact), click on the link above. So sorry, I can't articulate it, any more precisely. With KM alone, either you have to pull down the status menu or click to display a palette and then, execute another action. Nothing in KM affords this degree of access: Namely, one click on an icon that is always present and the macro is triggered. If I move my cursor to that icon and click it, the macrom that clears finder boxes, all apps and all desktop icons - and then, displays the search tool - is triggerred. An icon of a black magnifying glass always sits on the perimeter of my screen. Nothing in KM gives affords the quick access I have using Butler to display my KM macros as an icon. Re: the second example, I'm so sorry to say, but you're just plain wrong. If you disbelieve or disagree, I can make a short video. Then, the finger lifts and that duration gets inserted. BUT: After the down push of the click there is a movement to the side and down to the length of the pause. I say this because, the one advantage I have over you is that I am executing the actions. I hope you trust that I have no investment in selling or promoting my arrangement.
