This way, I can put a shortcut in any of the usual places (taskbar for example), and whether macro buttons is already running or not, any time I launch the shortcut, I will see the app.
As it is, if I launch the shortcut to macro buttons, and it is already running, nothing happens at all
And if it is in the tray, there is only one way to get to it, which is to show the tray icons, then double click it. In practice, this amounts to a click on a half-width icon (show systray) and then a double-click on the macro buttons systray icon. The alternative is a single click on an already-visible icon, 1/3 the clicks and less movement and precision required.Having this will also allow a keyboard shortcut to be bound to the app shortcut, to show the macro buttons.
No big rush for this one, Vincent, I just wanted to be sure you saw it 
That was one of my first attempts, but it doesn't work. When it is minimised to the systray and you click the pin on the taskbar it works as it does with any other shortcut, which is to say, nothing happens, because the existing instance is already running and invisible and it just stays invisible.
