I might be doing something wrong, but I am able to make the rest work. When using macros, everything works well except F11 and F12. They work with shift key, but not with the Control or combination. Is there something I am missing ?

Are you using an edited version of the menufile.dat? It gets a little confusing if the UserMacro section has been edited. PowerLogic and PowerPCB will show the default key assignments for macros even if they've been changed.

For example:
If you change UserMacro1 from Shift+F2 to Alt+Z, when you record the macro you still have to assign it to Shift+F2. Alt+Z will run the macro but PowerLogic/PowerPCB will display Shift+F2 as the hot-key in the macro dialog and in the .mcr file.

Hope this helps.
