Set Value of Text Field in Text Area not working for Operations Window (Split/Notes)
When I set up a macro for this I can see the focus going to the value (default 1) but it flickers and stays as 1 instead of 2.
I am setting up a macro to select the bottom two notes of selected midi and cut them to the clipboars (so I can pate into a new midi track).
I have it all wiorking if I use the Enter Text action but if I try to be efficient and use the "Enter Text Value of Text Field" command it doesn't seem to workj - yet I can see it working in your support video for Bounce name?
Any idea>?
Thanks

Hi Andrew,
This may be one of the exceptions to the rule. There are a few text areas around in Pro Tools that in fact do need you to use the Type Text action instead. Typically, these are text fields/areas with special drawing logic, for example for Bars|Beats or Timecode. So there's a pretty good chance you're already doing this the best way possible.

Thank you - that makes sense.
