Chi, you are freaking awesome! Rock on! That was exactly! what was going on!
You know what I bet happened? Remember I said I tried importing the macro file
and it didn't say imported successfully, so I didn't think it worked? One
detail I totally forgot about was that I'd then gone through the KM editer to
file/import macro file, and I'd manually then imported the file. I'm wonderring
if by me doing that, the first attempt when I hit command+O on it from the
Finder must a worked, so when I did it that second time, basically, what I did
was to install the same macro two times, therefore, each macro had a duplicate.
If that was indeed what happened, then no freaking wonder! That actually makes
a lot of sense.
I did as you suggested, removing the flowtools and flowtools inspector macros,
then reimporting them. That absolutely did the trick. Things are seeming to
now be working correctly, so thank you so much for your help! I really
appreciate it.

Subject: Re: Very very weird issue with Flotools
HI Christopher,
What you're describing sounds like Keyboard Maestro palate.
This could happen if one of the shortcuts got changed, and you now have ore
than one macros that have the same shortcuts for some reason.
When you have ore than one macros assigned with the same shortcut, Keyboard
Maestro gives you what they call palate, asking which Macro you want to fire.
I suggest to reinstall Flo Tools following the instruction on the getting
started toward the end.
IN short, you remove both Flo Tools and Flo Tools Inspector groups, and
import them back. Hopefully it'll fix itself.
Have you tried other commands?
Do they not work as well?

OK, so I went ahead and got Keyboard Maestro, and have installed the
scripts.
First of all, when I opened the macro file, the KM editer opened, but I
didn't hear anything about it being successfully imported.
Thinking maybe I just didn't hear it for some reason, I went ahead and
fired up a very very very very small test session I made the other day which
basically has one instrument track with Ivory instantiated, nothing really
impressive.
So, I selected that track with the track list table like I'd a done before
Flotools was in the picture. I also made absolutely sure the track is showing,
which it definitely is. My mother who is sighted even looked, and no question,
she confirmed it is showing both in the mix, and in the edit window.
I also made sure to follow the getting started link to an exact T that is
on the website.
Now, if I hit option+shift+W to speak shown tracks, I'm taken to this
really really weird window. If anyone wants to hear this with audio in action,
let me know, and I'll record it for ya. Basically, there's an unlabeled button
with no help tag, then if I VO+Right arrow, I get something that says
application button, then again to the right I see speak shown tracks, then one
more VO+right I get show track list popup. If I VO+Space on that, the script
is carried out, and I'm told that 1 track is shown, inst1, which by the way,
would be exactly correct. but why am I having to do that in this weird window
regardless what command macro I hit? Focus mode's off, etc.
Regardless which macro I try executing, I get that strange window. The odd
thing is, my mom doesn't actually see it popping up on the screen. I'm not
sure if it's some sort of a floating window, or what. I can't hit escape to
get out of it either. the only way I can dismiss it is as described above by
carrying out the command, or, if I command+tab away from the ProTools window,
then command+tab back to it, the window goes away, until I do another macro
command.
This is just the strangest thing!
Slau? Do you or anyone know what on earth might be going on? This is just
craziness! Yes, I do have the box to let VO be controlled with Apple Script
checked.
Could it be possible that I'm not on the most up to date setup?
I'm running El Capitan 10.11.6. Note this isn't any sort of beta. If it
were, I'd not be discussing it here due to nDA.
As for PT, I'm on ProTools 12.4.0.294. For Keyboard Maestro, I am on
version 7.3.
Any clues?
Chris.
