Hi Norbert,
You can use at the start of your macro:
saveSettings(): Saves most Edit>Options submenu settings so they can be
restored later by calling restoreSettings.
This saves the current status, then set your own options and at the end of a
macro call:
restoreSettings: Restores Edit>Options submenu settings saved by the
saveSettings function.
However, what I find easier in practice is this: I set all my options in the
StartupMacros.txt file (so every time I start IJ is set the way I prefer) and
I distribute that file as well. That way I know that the other computer
behaves the same way as mine and this does not depend on some option settings
of certain macros that might not restore the original state.
