Macro wont activate on app opening

[#1]

hi guys

i have a macro that change the selection color but it only active when i run it from ctrl+m

but i need to run it each time the app is opened

so i made a trigger that would run it "onopen"

but it doesn't seem to work like in the picture i tried to call it using name+() or just name

but it doesn't seem to work

any help would be appreciated

Where do you open your "app"? In QV Desktop or in an AccessPoint client?

i tried on both

Macros that try to manipulate the UI won't work in the Ajax Client.

Could you remove the round brackets in the trigger and try?

Below attached file is working fine in my QlikView version 12.

maybe it's just as @Peter  said above "Macros that try to manipulate the UI won't work in the Ajax Client."
