This example will show you how to set up macros to control the text containing a counter value displayed by a text source via hotkeys.
The macros will allow you to ...

• increment the value.
• decrement the value.
• reset the value to 0.

The value of the counter will be stored in a variable named Counter Value.
The variable is configured to save its value across OBS restarts.

But you could of course also configure to it to be set to a fixed value on OBS start.

The settings of the text source will be modified using the "Source" action type.
