Macro execution behavior changed with wait step

Open goldenages1989 opened this issue 2 months ago • 2 comments

Previously, when using wait command between steps in a macro, the workflow would pause after completing a step, allowing manual action before proceeding to the next step (after the wait time). However, the current behavior has changed: the macro now automatically proceeds to the next step after the wait time expires, without maintaining the pause-for-manual-action functionality.

​Expected Behavior:​​ Return to the original logic

Hi @goldenages1989, thanks for the report!

The Wait command should just do a timed delay before continuing, which matches how it’s behaved since it was added.

It should just be: Capture 1 -> Wait 1s -> Capture 2 -> Wait 1s -> Capture 3, each time waiting for the corresponding capture to finish before moving on and prompting for more input.

What do you mean by manual action? I don't think I understand the issue.

Sorry for the confusion. The three "QuickAdd" items shown in the screenshot are for quick entry into three sections (Family, Work, Study) of my daily note. Each is a ModalForm. My goal is to execute the next QuickAdd only after the current form is either submitted or cancelled.
