Including macros in header.ftl doesn't make those macros available for other
screens. What works quite well is something like this in header.ftl
<#assign templateSrc = r"<#macro test>something here</#macro>" />
<#assign template = templateSrc?interpret />
${request.setAttribute("template", template)}
Modify the files which want to use the macro "test" by inserting two line in
beginning and one line in the end as follows
<#assign template = requestAttributes.template />
<@template>
.... file contents here
</@template>

Subject: Re: FTL: Is there a way to have a global template of macros
Hi Vinay,
why not integrate it into your main decorator screen / widget definition
just like a header would be included everywhere.
<platform-specific><html><html-template
location="component://petitbateau/webapp/petitbateau/includes/macro.ftl"/></
html></platform-specific>
