Creating Macros
You can create an IML macro in either of the following ways:
• By recording the macro in Arbortext IsoDraw: Use options on the Macros menu to record a set of actions, assign them a macro name, and save them in a macro file.
• Editing a macro file in a text editor: Open a new or existing macro (*.ism) file in (for example) Windows Notepad. Add IML code to it using this guide as a reference—then save the file with an .ism extension in the \Macros folder.
After you create a macro, it appears in the list of macro names on the Arbortext IsoDrawMacros menu. If you create a macro using a text editor while Arbortext IsoDraw is running, select > to refresh the list.
