Pause macro execution

Does anyone know how to pause the execution of a macro? I know you can hit the (x) button, but this kills it entirely.

Spontaneously I would put some Thread.sleep(x); statements at the point where you want the macro to pause and some if-clause to check when it should continue.
I don't think it's possible to pause it at an arbitrary position, but I really appreciate when I'm wrong!

I believe that is a pause in recording a macro?

After review, you're right. Thanks for the correction.
