Jim,
That is "tricky and potentially dangerous".
The problem with toggles is that Macros do not know the current state of
things, and the state cannot be interrogated using Macros because Macros
do not include "IF Then" logic. If you are looking at the display you
can usually tell the state, but a Macro cannot.
A Macro can always initiate a button tap or hold using the "SWT or SWH"
commands if not by other explicit commands, so yes, you can do it, but
work in a logical manner to determine "which is what" and the logical
sequence for one macro initiating another.
It may be easier to do something like that with 2 macros. The advent of
the K-Pod increased the number of Macros from 8 to 16, so it may be
better to initiate the SPLIT with the tap of a button and cancel the
split with a hold of that same button (2 separate macros).
