Sometimes you just have to learn new things. Especially when those new things are free. :)

It’s possible that’s the case. What are the other possibilities? Any workarounds I can try?

Found the solution. The problem was caused because of autocomplete. So, before hitting the enter / space key whenever recording the macro, hit escape first. Recording the macro this way makes it work during playback after a save.

I am on Win 10 with all updates applied. Not sure how long I have had the problem - I have been getting the “file updated by another program” message for some time now.
I can live without the Clone View in the short term - have to get a project finished in the next 2 days, and then will have time to do some experimenting to see if I can get more issues.

Awesome idea, hadn’t though of the right-click, I will look into that. I’m sure I could find some suggestions, but anyone know where I can get started with plug-in development? I just need some sort of tutorial where it shows me how to write a simple plugin i.e. hello world kind of thing. I think from there I can figure out the rest. Anyways thanks to everyone who has viewed and responded to my post. :D
