I am attempting to create autotexts for parts of my EMR software that output various paragraphs of text, which themselves would have certain selectable words that can be alterated (with either drop down menus, free text, etc) to create unique statements. I have played around with QM for several hours to no avail. Does anybody have recommendations as to how I could go about this?
In the example below, I have several hotkeys that pull certain paragraphs. Is there a way to make the capitalized words/phrases hyperlinks to the menu or have a menu popup on hover over the word? I created one popup list, but the trigger is typing the actual word rather than hovering or clicking on the specific area I want those options to be available.
Any help or guidance is appreciated!

Better use dialog, not autotext.

Gintaras (or others),
So, I've worked on this over the weekend, and it definitely is more refined than the auto texts! I have a few additional questions that I've run into:
1. Since its a Dialog and not an autotext, how do you typically trigger this? Can the dialog be triggered with a keyboard input? Or is it best converted into an executable file and run manually?
2. The output of this dialog will be pasted into a Firefox broswer window. I noticed when I run the dialog, I end up with a pasting error if I don't have Firefox running in the background immediately under QM. Is there a way to have the system, by default, maximize or bring to the front, the program (in this case Firefox) that it needs to paste into?
3. In the example you pasted (see portion below), you separate csvWords with a |. They work flawlessly. However, what if I want to be able to select multiple choices to be pasted (what would traditionally be a ctrl+ mouse click in Windows) rather than just one? Is that something I need a multibox for? I was having problems with the syntax.
;Shows dialog where you can select texts and replace keywords such as LOCATION. OK pastes the text.
;Need to edit something. The TODO lines show where and what.
;TODO: add more texts. Edit if need. It is CSV format. For " use "". For new line use new line.
str csvTexts=
;anm = "comes in today concerned about acne on his LOCATION. He reports having the acne for DURATION. During that time, he has used PAST TREATMENTS. He is currently using CURRENT TREATMENTS."
;anf = "comes in today concerned about acne on her LOCATION. She reports having the acne for DURATION. During that time, she has used PAST TREATMENTS. She is currently using CURRENT TREATMENTS. Patient reports the acne DOES/DOES NOT flare around her menstrual cycle."
;arm = "is following up for acne on the LOCATION. He was last seen on DATE, and prescribed TREATMENT. He reports his acne is (IMPROVED, WORSENED, STABLE). Patient admits to TAKING/NOT TAKING his medication(s) as prescribed. Pt DENIES/ADMITS side effects from the medication(s)."
;arf = "is following up for acne on the LOCATION. She was last seen on DATE, and prescribed TREATMENT. She reports her acne is (IMPROVED, WORSENED, STABLE). Patient admits to TAKING/NOT TAKING her medication(s) as prescribed. Pt DENIES/ADMITS side effects from the medication(s)."

Thanks.

1. Assign a keyboard trigger or any other trigger, or drag-drop to a toolbar. If the toolbar is attached to the Firefox window, it also solves the 2 problem.
2. Run the dialog macro only when Firefox is active. Or before the paste line insert "activate window" command.
3. Then need to replace the ComboBox control with a ListBox control that has multi-select style. Getting its selected items is not so simple, but not difficult. But I don't know what you'll do with multiple selected items in this macro.
