      I’m trying to record a macro with the following steps:

      1. Open Column Editor
      2. Insert number: 1
      3. Increase by: 1

      Unfortunately, I can’t record it. I just want to have a “enumerate shortcut”.

      Can anyone help me with that?

        The column editor isn’t “macroable”.
        Macros originated as simple editor actions.
        The column editor is a more complex action.

            @Alan-Kilborn Got it, do you have any suggestions on how to address my problem in a different way?

              @Gustavo-Baiano said in Macro for "Number to Insert" from Column Editor:

              It seems like it would be an easy thing to write a script for, either in Pythonscript or Luascript

              You would:

              • define a column insert region (what would look like a tall caret

              • run the script (via keycombo, menu, or toolbar button)

              • boom your numbering pops in! :-)

              But, do you do this constantly, such that using the actual column editor is a real burden?
