Recording/Editing Custom Controls

When you create a custom control, you record a series of events and special functions, that are played back when you run the custom control. The process for creating a new cc and editing an existing one are the same, except when editing you have the option to insert events at different points in the existing cc.

Tip: Remember that some functions take time to perform and a pause should be added after the function to ensure that the command is completed before moving on to the next command.

Almost any action or setting can be stored in a custom control, with the following exceptions:

  • Diagnostic Functions
  • Confirmation Dialogs
  • Panel-Specific Functions
Note: It is recommended that you use a control panel for recording custom controls.
