The macro reprogramming functionality in the Corsair iCUE software, while powerful, has several limitations that users should be aware of:

Key Limitations

• Single Macro Execution: Only one macro can run at a time. If you activate a new macro while another is still executing, it will interrupt the first macro, which can be frustrating for users who want to run multiple macros simultaneously.
• Limited Delay Options: The maximum delay for a single action is capped at 99,999 milliseconds (approximately 100 seconds) due to the five-digit limit in the input field. This restriction makes it impossible to set longer delays directly, which can hinder the creation of more complex macros that require longer wait times.
• No Subroutines or Conditionals: The software does not support subroutines or conditional statements within macros. This means that users cannot create more sophisticated macros that depend on specific conditions or reuse macro segments effectively.
• Editing Difficulties: The macro editing interface is limited to a small window showing only seven lines at a time, making it cumbersome to navigate and edit long macros. There is also no option to cut and paste commands between different macros, which can slow down the editing process significantly.
• Toggle Macros: While toggle macros allow users to start and stop a macro with a single key press, they do not support repeating actions once activated. This limitation can be problematic for users needing continuous input without manual intervention.
• Lack of Visual Feedback: There is no visual indication within the software or through keyboard lighting that a macro is currently running. This absence of feedback can lead to confusion about whether a macro has been activated or is still executing.

These limitations highlight some challenges users may face when utilizing the iCUE software for advanced macro programming, potentially impacting their overall experience.
