Hi there,
I would like to create a macro to open a file found in various locations, in a new tab. I created a *.ini file which stores the path of the file. So, my macro should open the ini file which is stored at a fixed location, easy command, open "C:\Temp\test.ini", then go to a line that has another file location/path. Normally, you are able to select the path, right click on it, then first option open. This is not catched in the Macro Recorder.
I tried to use the %sel% key word, it won't work.
Alternatively, I tried to create another Tool which is able to open a new instance of UltraEdit with the file by using uedit32.exe %sel%. This works standalone, but when asembled in a macro it crashes, that probably because the macro open command knows only absolute paths.
Third option would be to have some Key command to simulate a Right Click then Down Arrow, Enter.
Is there any way I can do this?
My version of UE is 12.20b+1
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Daniel
