FWIW - I don't really know what this setting does - but I burn up fewer loads with this setting.

 And one more piece of un-needed advice.  To run this macro you have to be on a tranquilizers, cause it will look like the whole load is gonna incenerate every second.  Take 10 deep breaths and the macro will recover (most of the time).

-I'm using more macros in T4 than I did in T3. All the macros are from these donations. However, some of them do not run correctly on the first go.  I found out that my monitor is (evidently) not exactly the same dimensions as noted in the macros. And while my hardware may say 1680 x 1050 it's not '''the precisely like one listed in the macro info text'''. So with the suggestions from Hikahi that I check the location/positions needed for the CC Macro from Galagah's contribution.

+So, here's some tips if you are a macro ''"no-know-how"''.
 * Get the AutoIt program. This has a handly screen position reader called AutoIt v3 Window Info. This tool will stay on top of the screen you are trying to measure and you can use CTRL+ALT+F to "freeze" the position you are measuring, so you can write it down.
