Macros don't record actions outside of the application, such as navigating between applications or changing system settings.

LibreOffice Macros Library holds macros that are shared by all users of the application, while 'My Macros' are specific to a particular user.

Predefined functions are already built into Calc and perform specific tasks, while macros are user-defined functions that can combine multiple actions.

A collection of pre-recorded macros provided by LibreOffice that should not be modified.

A collection of macros that you create and add to LibreOffice.

The programming language used to write and edit macros in LibreOffice is called Basic.

Viewing and modifying the underlying instructions of a macro, requiring knowledge of the Basic language.
