You can significantly improve the performance of your recorded Extra! macros by editing these macros to change how InfoConnect detects when the screen is ready for input.
If you need to make changes to your Extra! macros, you can edit them using the Extra! Basic Editor.
To start the Extra! Basic Editor, you must first associate the Run Extra! Basic Editor action with a custom control, such as a button or a keyboard shortcut.
