The Wait submenu of the Command Menu gives access to the Wait command with different wait times.
The syntax of the Wait command is, {Wait} followed by a wait time in milliseconds, followed by {/Wait} as in the following example, where the specified wait time is of 100 milliseconds:
{command}{Wait}100{/Wait}{NoSpacing}
The Wait command is especially useful to slow down Instant Text when needed between two commands. In the following command used in Microsoft Word:
{command}{Alt F8}{Wait}200{/Wait}macro1{Enter}{NoSpacing}
Alt+F8 triggers a macro window to pop up and we need to introduce a wait time to give Word the time to pop up this macro window before sending the characters m a c r o 1, else these characters may get lost and our expansion may not produce what we designed it for.
