I build a macro -- ver1 -- with call a parameter -- ver1para -- type byte.
If i call this macro with parameter -- 5 -- after steep over the ver1para is 5.
This is working ok.

I do the thame with a parameter -- ver1para[6] -- type string.
If i call this macro with parameter -- "b1_0_on" -- after steep over the
ver1para is "" , not "b1_0_on" in the watch window.What going wrong?

This is a known bug where user macros do not accept a "string literal" as a parameter.

This has been fixed - but the fix has not been released yet. It will be included in the next update of the software.

There is a workaround:

User macros accept a string variable as a parameter, so create a string variable and set it to your literal string before passing it to your macro.

So, instead of doing this:

Code: Select all

Call Macro <MyMacro> with parameter "hello"

do this:

Code: Select all

Set String Variable <s> to "hello"
Call Macro <MyMacro> with parameter <s>
