• Hotstring, Snippet & macros : expected behaviour ?

  Hi again Jean
  
  I define a snippet as a macros with this content : this is my text {Tab} next text
  I assigned a hotstring to it : #rfc#
  
  Now I open notepad, type #rfc#, enter and nothing is replaced
  
  I removed the "macro" option and do the same. Then I got my text in notepad
  
  So looks like replacing hotstring does not work when the snippet is set as a macro (running latest version), or is it expected behavior ?

  Hi Orlith,
  
  I was not able to reproduce this issue. I created a Macro snippets with your example and it worked.

  Hello
  
  Here is my settings (see pics) and the result (see Gif)
  
  I'll try to delete the favorite and recreate it.
  
  thx

  Just found a possible recurrent pattern :
  It seems to work only one time just after the creation.

  Hi Orlith,
  
  I created a snippet identical to yours (with "Macro Mode" in the "Advanced Settings" tab) and it works, not only one time. I could not find an explanation to your issue.
  
  Anybody else faced a similar issue?

  Thx, I'll continue to investigate. Maybe it's another tool interfering
