Pause and M2P in menu macro

    I am trying to add a custom version of breakline to a tool palette, and I
    can get this far.

    ^C^C_breakline;S;.125;E;.0625;\\;

    This does a great job of setting the block size and extension I want, then
    pausing twice, then accepting MidPoint for break location. however, I really
    want to have both pick points use M2P. The function here is a stair break
    symbol, and I always put the symbol from the middle of one tread to the
    middle of the next.

    I tried
    ^C^C_breakline;S;.125;E;.0625;\M2P\M2P;
    ^C^C_breakline;S;.125;E;.0625;\M2P \M2P ; (spaces after M2P) and
    ^C^C_breakline;S;.125;E;.0625;\M2P;\M2P;;

    None of which work. Can anyone point out the error of my ways?

    best,
    Gordon

    Think about how many answers M2P needs and then add
    that many pauses. Just a guess.
