rename and release macros..

Howdy folks,

I read and tried Storm's rename macro in Pinco's Guide post, but I'm having difficulties. I've played with a number of different macros and searched for marcos for this, but to no avail.

I can get a targeting cursor to come up to rename just by saying (using a macro or just hitting enter and typing it) "I wish to rename into (new name)". Can't get it to target my fresh tame in a macro no matter what I seem to try.

As for the release part of it, even if I hit enter and type in, "I wish to release (Name, being whatever the new pet name is)", I can't get that to work, can't even get a cursor to come up. The only way I can release is the old fashion way of clicking on the tame, going down the list to release, and then answering the question that comes up. Is there a setting in Pinco UI that I might have set wrong?

So, what am I missing here? I'm using the EC, I'm in New Haven trying to figure this out. I keep thinking that maybe I will have to do 2 macros (and that would be ok with me), one for renaming and one for releasing.

Lordy I hope there's an easy way to do this without so many clicks and targets. Anyone gotten this to work, and would you please share if you have had success?

Thanks in advance,
Mac

make sure you have legacy targeting turned off?
