How to get multiple commands to work in a macro?

I want to make a macro that isolates a selection then runs the covert command.
This is a small part of my macro
!_Isolate
_pause

_Convert
_pause
_O=Lines
_S=No
_D=Yes
_A=5
_T=0.01
_M=0
_X=0
_U=Input

_enter
_Selnone

Once I run it wont let me select anything to isolate and just goes straight to the convert command and then run the isolate at the end. Is there a way to nest multiple commands in a macro without them interfering with each other.

Hi Tommy - it looks like Isolate ignores the Pause… I’ll investigate. Your macro should work if you pre-select the curves however.

Hm, there seems to be a bug in ISOLATE where it ignores the pause commands.

@wim might know whom to address on this one.

EDIT: 1.0 to Pascal :wink: Happy Easter!

Hi Pascal, thank you for looking into this for me. I tried running the macro by pre-selecting the curves, when I do that it doesn’t run the isolate at all. I get a “Unknown command: $$Isolate$$” in the command line

Yep, I see that - thanks.
