On my side I had to introduce a wait time

before the windows+F6 close sequence else it was a bit erratic.

I use the slides and expansions together to implement a basic stylesheet as follows.

In my slide file I have a slide of "s" that produces:

<no action>stylesheet.

The no action macro here is just used to reset the character buffer of the expander so that it tries to expand stylesheet independently of what I have typed before. Then I have defined several entries in my glossary with the short form "slidesheet" that will change the font to various colours.

stylesheet    <preview>black font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>green font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>olive font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>navy font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>purple font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>silver font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>red font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>yellow font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>
stylesheet    <preview>blue font</preview><wait>100</wait><f2><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><enter><tab><down><right><left><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><down><enter><wait>1500</wait><windows key><f6>

Now when I slide on "s" it produces "slidesheet" and I get a menu of font colour changes:

blue font
yellow font
red font
silver font
purple font
navy font
olive font
green font
black font.
