g:macro_invoke

The g:macro_invoke tag can be used to call a UI macro. The name of the macro needs to be specified in the macro attribute. Alternatively, a macro can be included by calling g:name_of_a_macro, as illustrated in the following examples. It can accept the following attributes:

• macro: The name of the macro to be executed. This attribute is required when using the g:macro_invoke tag; however, it can be ignored if you are using the g:name_of_the_macrosystax.

<g:macro_invoke macro="sample_macro" message="This is a sample macro ...
