I think I am going to give up on Quickeys. There are so many problems...
1) When I try to record a complex macro in Finale, Quickeys regularly crashes.
2) I am trying to get a Macro to select a popup menu item in the Frame Attributes Dialog. I am trying to change a textblock from Single Page to Page Range. Either this doesn't work at all, or, if it does work, for some reason the second page range text field doesn't become active. I am sure this is partly Finale's fault, but it has already taken me almost a day now, without success.
3) Although not as bad as iKey2, the user interface isn't exactly wonderful either.
4) The editor is so slow.
5) Programming complex macros is actually more fiddle than with iKey 2.
Unless someone can tell me the solutions to all of this I am going to go back to iKey. I have to decide whether I want to put up with the iKey2 UI or reprogram my macros in iKey 1, but either seems to be better than Quickeys. Programming the complex macro I am currently trying in Quickeys took me about half an hour in iKey 2.
It's pretty sad, since Quickeys can obviously do much more (ie it has variables which I would like to use).
Nothing I have seen on OS X even comes close to what OneClick could do in OS 9.
