The problem with the macros is likely that the reference clicks are facet
based on the 2^4 (just like the twists are), rather than being sticker
based. So you can still make and use macros on the 2^4 right now, but you
have to be careful to remember where on the facets you clicked. This is
definitely confusing, and I had entered it as issue
49<http://code.google.com/p/magiccube4d/issues/detail?id=49> last
year. I suppose one could make the case that the reference clicks and
twisting clicks should be the same for a puzzle in this sense, but probably
it should just be switched to have the reference clicks always be sticker
based…

P.S. deustfrr, hold down shift while hovering over a sticker in MC5D to see
all the stickers which are on the same piece.
