The Macro Bar

On request, a line for macro icons can be used. In the program, select this line with a menu option. Also select, if you want to see the default icons in that line.

Macros are only displayed, if the macro name ends with a text in brackets. The program and the applet will try to load an icon with that name from a subdirectory named "icons". This must be a subdirectory of the directory containing the construction file. If no icon is found, the text inside the brackets will be used in the macro bar. Icons should be 32x32 in PNG format with transparent background, and the aliasing should be optimized for light gray.

The program archive contains the following useful icons. To use one of these icons for a macro, put the number into brackets after the macro name.
