Bug Report - Keystroke Macro Recording Won't Stop

I have tried recording numerous keystroke macros on several different consoles running 3.10 - 3.16 (Hog 4, Hedge Hog 4x, Nano Hog 4 PC) as well as several installations of Hog 4 PC running on both Windows 7 and Windows 10.  All seem to have the same glitch.  Once you begin recording a Keystroke Macro, it will not stop. 

Normally if you start recording a Keystroke Macro, you press PIG + MACRO
and the recording stops.  The LED on the Macro Key stops flashing the
Red Macro Symbol in the Command Line disappears and the Red Highlight on
the Macro in the Macro directory stops glowing red.  

Currently, PIG + MACRO does NOT stop the recording and the only way I have found to get out of Keystroke Macro Recording is to Restart the Desktop or Exit out of the Showfile.  The issue occurs regardless of using physical keys on a keyboard or virtual keys on the digital face-plate of Hog 4 PC.

Since moving playback bars to external monitors and opening the Kind/Command Key window is NOT part of the view, keystroke Macros are VERY important on Hog PC, Hedge Hog and Road Hog console to properly position toolbars, playback bars and certain windows when starting up in certain layouts.

Hoping there is a simple and quick fix for this.

  • Hi Brent,

    Thanks for your offer! if you could attach a video of you making you macro where I can see the whole front panel and the macro directory as well as your show file if you can that would be great. 

    Sometimes, especially on PC or when using the virtual front panel keys can get stuck down. If it is a show file issue I should be able to see it on my end with your show file.

    If you are not comfortable posting it to the forums feel free to shoot me and email and respond here after you have done so, sometimes emails with attachments get trapped in our spam filter and I wouldn't want to miss it.

    Thanks!
