The Set Variable to Calculation action sets a variable to the result of a calculation with numeric formatting.

You may use the following in the to calculation box:

• Keyboard Maestro Variables
• Functions
• Calculation Operators

The to field is a numeric field so you cannot use any of the Clipboard tokens or indeed any text tokens.

Using Keyboard Maestro Variable Names in the to calculation box:

• Do not use the text token syntax for a Variable, like %Variable%My Variable Name%.
• Instead, you just use the Variable name without any %, like My Variable Name

The below macro performs a simple calculation of adding 1 to the value currently selected by the user in the user's document, and then pasting the new value back into the user's document.
