Ok, I'm still a relatively new M Doc, but I have my buffs, I have my Macros and I have an ever growing stack of cash 
The only problem is, every time I shuttle somewhere it seems, my buff macro is replaced with the 'take cover' button and it's sliding left to right in the macro list.
This happens to my little 'next in line' macro but not to my 'spam' macro.
My though is that it's the use of %TT - anyone else using %TT having macro continuity problems?
Or anyone know how I can make it stop?
Peace

I dunno about all that, but I noticed that my crafting macro kept getting the last 4 or so lines cut off every time I logged.
But you're saying that your macro gets replaced with an icon of another action? Hmmm....

It doesn't have to do with the %TT wording, it has to do with something else (happened to me with my marco) and the way it was fixed is that my computer crashed while I was playing and my toolbar was cleared. So no more changing macro, but I had to put everything back in its place (none of my macros were deleted). If you want to clear your toolbar simply disconnect the interne cable from your computer right after you get your loading screen, but I have no idea if there are any other side effects, hope this helps.

This is happening because your macro is too long. There is a limit to the number of characters in a macro the client will load. Oddly enough, this limit is less than the number of characters you can put into a macro with the macro editor. Thus, it is possible to create a working macro, but when you exit the program, the next time you log in, the macro will be truncated to that maximum length, and, suddenly, your macro no longer works right.
