I use an app that has some options, I want to change it when using BTT
I want to automate this process, my navigation bar is hidden, and reveals on hover.
Next thing is exporting in keynote, each time I have to do is go and select file->export->then type
there is no shortcut for this, like we have in powerpoint, how do I do this?
Thanks for reading, I am a tech noob. Please don't mind
For your first problem, use "Click Menu Bar Status Item" and then use the "Find text on screen" trigger ensuring you click "Move mouse to center of text". You can even limit it to the top right corner which will make it much faster. After moving the mouse use "send left click" and so on.
For your second problem there is actually a fantastic trigger called "Trigger Menu Bar Menu-Item." Kind of confusing at first but the instructions are well written and takes some trial and error to figure it out. You would type it as "File;Export;PDF*" or "PDF..." the * pretty much tells it to select the option that starts w/ PDF regardless of what comes after (aka wildcard)
BTT will execute the action in the background, it won’t actually open the menu for you. Exit full screen mode and try a different option to see if it works. If it does then the way you typed the path is wrong and you just have to correct that. I don’t see a reason why it shouldn’t work but if still not then that a bit out of my league
It must exactly match the entries in the menu. In your screenshot I see “Export To” instead of just “Export” and “PDF ...” instead of “PDF”. So try it once with: File;Export To;PDF … with the "Trigger Menu Bar Menu-Item." action.
