No prob, man :)

And, if you want it to not do the "unskip" thing, just comment-out lines 39-41

Yeah that's tricky, because if you don't skip all but the selected slide, then it exports all of them. Ideally there should be an AppleScript action for exporting only the selected slides, but I don't think that exists.

I forgot that I already had an AppleScript action in @KeyboardMaestro that does this 🤦‍♂️

I made an "App: Keynote" folder that only activates for that app

That AppleScript is exactly what I was looking for, thank you! ✨

The only minor inconvenience is that it sets all slides to unskipped afterwards, but that's fine for how I'm using it in this case!

Brace yourself.

One of the most brutal Arctic cold outbreaks on record is gathering momentum and moving through North America right now.

Wind chills are hitting extremely dangerous levels of -70°F (-57°C) in Wyoming.

I definitely can do it. As for stopping clicks from working, I actually can't do that, so I'm not entirely sure what happened. Ask on the forum (https://forum.keyboardmaestro.com/) if you need some help making the macro.

Alright I will give it a try!

Ok #Remarkable users, this is an AMAZING upgrade! It’s a custom generated PDF for your eink device that turns it into a HYPERLINKED planner! Almost a full app inside a single 600+ page PDF! I’m kicking myself I didn’t think of it http://tiktok.com/t/ZTRqkabBs/ -> http://hyperpaper.me

I literally just made one of these for myself! The year overview layout on mine is based on a wall calendar layout I've been using for 5 years, and I haven't seen any other PDF planners that do it this way! I decided to list mine on Etsy.

The customizer/generator website is brilliant though!

Nice, well congrats! I hear they need all the help they can get right now! Lily worked there right up until the acquisition so I got to hear all sorts of stories 😅

@aaronpk Oh wow. Sorry to hear it broke things!

I want to believe in it!

I am also a little bitter that it took over the command-tab behavior without any warning and with no clear way to revert it 😠

@aaronpk If you're a Mac user this is where Keyboard Maestro really earns its keep. Set up the steps then assign a trigger — could be a keystroke, or click a button, for example. I have all kinds of things set up in KM that work like that.

I just tried but I can't figure out how to get KM to read a specific text field in the export screen and change the value. I tried the "record" feature, and then it broke my computer and I had to restart the OS and uninstall it.

@KeyboardMaestro, my friend. It can do the most amazing things… Like make that sort of click-heavy task a mere keystroke

Well that was a massive fail. I tried it, but I don't think it can get into the specific bits needed to make that work in Keynote. Then it took over my computer and they keyboard and most clicks stopped working. Had to restart.

@aaronpk can’t you automate keynote with Shortcuts?

You'd think so. I can't find any actions that would work for that.

@aaronpk Keynote as a vector drawing tool is vastly under-rated

also for animations!!

I've been making so many graphics in Keynote lately for use in videos and blog posts, but I really wish there was a quick keyboard shortcut to export the current slide as a PNG. Right now it takes about 9 clicks to export a slide.

It’s long overdue and much needed. As drivers, we’ve been getting off way too easy As long as the tolling revenue doesn’t pay for freeway expansion and actually helps take cars off the road, I’m all for it!

I don’t now about you Jason, but in my experience when an engineer says to you, “I think we should totally rewrite this part of the codebase” I always think to myself “this will speed things up” and not “okay we’ve just lost a year on someone’s passion project”.
