Yes they do. I don't think you understand what the function of the macro tag is.

Set up two macro buttons

clrtx:
"1234<CLRTX>5678"

clr2tx:
"12345<CLR2X>6789"

execute each one and either press the T/R before the execution or after. The key is that the macro inserts the "^X" or the "^x" into the transmit text buffer at the position of the tag. Nothing happens until the transmit cursor reaches that point in the text. It does not occur at the time of the macro button press.

I agree this is what it is doing but it doesn't do what I had thought it would do"
1. put a bunch of spaces in the TX buffer
2. press a macro button with <CLR2X><TX><CALL> DE <MYCALL><RX>
3. RESULT: it still sends the spaces; DESIRED RESULT: it doesn't send the spaces.

I can see how this may be hard with the macro invocation separate from the macro interpretation. I'm not sure this current behavior is useful; we on the list seem to agree on that point.
