Hello everyone. Is there a way to make Fastkeys macro press letter, that is within clipboard or INPUT?
Example: In Clipboard there is string "hpl" and I want macro to press "h" at a specific moment to trigger another macro, then "p" after few clicks and "h" at the end. However I want to input them as a single string.
Thanks for suggestions!

Sorry but I'm not sure I understand the question.

Sorry, I will try to explain myself better. Basically my question has 2 parts:
1. Is it even possible to call macro from another macro? So for example, use basicaly macro to make selection bold in Word and call another macro, that has Alt + t binding through Send: {Control Down}b{Right}{Control Up}{Alt Down}t{Alt Up}
I guess it should be possible, sometimes it works for me, sometimes it does not.
2. Can I make macro press letter key corresponding to letter within clipboard or highlighed letter? Meaning Send: {Alt Down}{PRESS LETTER CORRESPONDING TO HIGHLITHED/CLIPBOARD ONE}{Alt Up}
Thus running another macro corresponding to such combination.
Thanks in advance ;-), even if it is not possible.

You could try the Sendlevel solution discussed in thi topic

Or try “Insert another command” macro.
