Using P3 Buttons to Execute Macros

Byron Peebles-3
Paul Saffren N6HZ posted here in October 2016 that the next release of
the P3 firmware would allow you to associate a front-panel FN key with a
Macro.  Does anyone know if that ever happened?  I manually entered a
long macro as a test but I don't see any way to execute it.

I entered it manually via keyboard (what year is this?).

I placed it in MEM 5 with KEY F5 but MEM 5 must not associate with FN-5
and I don't see how to make them associated.

Thanks, es 73, Byron

[RESOLVED] Using P3 Buttons to Execute Macros

Byron Peebles-3
I found my answer on the elecraft.com software page in the bullet-list
under the latest revision.

To link a P3 function key to a Macro, you manually (using a keyboard)
enter the macro, go into the P3 menu, SVGA menu and use the Select Knob
to get to Macro, select the macro (mem) you want and then hit the
function key.  Hit menu again to exit.

73, Byron
