- | Before you post a question to the forum please: | ||
- | |||
- | * Spend a little time looking through the Keyboard Maestro manual. | ||
- | * [TO-DO] Provide links to online manual. | ||
- | * Use search within the Keyboard Maestro Editor to try to find related actions. | ||
- | * Spend at least 5-10 minutes searching within the forum itself and with Google. | ||
- | |||

- | That seems like a no-brainer right? Not so. Posting a well thought out question with sufficient information to answer it in one go is not always as easy as it seems. | ||
- | |||
- | Users tend to say something like: | ||
- | |||
- | "How do I move a file to my Pictures folder?" | ||
- | |||
- | They don't mention what app they want to do this in. | ||
- | |||
- | The normal assumption would be the Finder. | ||
- | |||
- | But then the questioner comes back and says it's Path Finder, or Capture One, or something else... | ||
- | |||
- | Valuable time gets wasted this way — yours and the person's who tried to help you. |
