(But any info about Macaroon's /in would still be appreciated.)

Right, I shall see if I can compare the code from SlashIn to the one in macaroon and if so perhaps fix Macaroons code. Than ofc ask SlashIn author for usage of the code before uploading.

used to put the far view type totem can't think of its name atm but in raid that was a killer suddenly not being about to move of cast cos your viewing through you totem when you should be refreshing watershield lol

I'll check again but as far as I can see I can't find fault with bindings etc

and you don't have the same key but with an modifier bound to the totem either? coz I know my modifier keys can lock in some times. .. Need a new Keyboard >.<

About the saving of profiles. Any change will be autosaved to a degree.
That degree is if you log out without changing specs/profiles. Then the next time you log on you will have the setup of the last time you were on.

hi Dwargh, thanks for the reply

I wish this were the case for me, but I have to save my profile before I log out every single time. Even if I log out then instantly back on to the same character my changes will not have been saved.

Since Cata was released I've completely reinstalled all my addons; once with a fresh WoW install and the second time I deleted my interface and wtf folders and started fresh from there.

i'll just keep waiting for an update someday that may or may not fix any of these problems i hope...

And if you ever had that key bound to a totem before.. might it be you have some overlapping old settings with new ones?

I actually had a bar before with my elementals on that when I got into a vehicle turned into a aim up/down and exit bar even though I hadn't set it up to be one such.

Come to think of it... I might have deleted the bar in a fashion so it ended up in the storage and then made a new one. for the purpose wich I guess could mean that it in some way inherited the old bars settings before being saved.

Re: Re: Re: /click - RESOLVED

Originally posted by Trimble Epic
Ok, I found out how to do this... the simple command /framestack lets you mouse over buttons and it shows you their names. This includes Macaroon buttons, the button names are in the color associated with Hunters. I.e. "MacaroonButton172" for example.

So, now I can put commonly used macros in one place, and point to them with /click.

One advantage of doing it this way is with /castsequence macros. If I have the same castsequence macro on different buttons (in the same place, but on different stance bars), then when i press it once, and the stance switches, it doesn't properly advance to the second spell in the sequence, because it now thinks i'm pressing it for the first time again (different button, even though it looks the same). using a /click macro, the same sequencer works even if it's accessed from different buttons. Sweet!

Here's an example of what I'm talking about...

As a druid, I have the following macro:

/castsequence [@player] reset=5 Regrowth(), Rejuvenation(), Healing Touch()

This macro is found on my bear bar, my cat bar, my prowl bar, and my caster bar. However, when I'm in cat form, and i press this, it starts casting Regrowth, which forcefully shifts me out of cat form. This shift causes my bars to switch from cat bar to caster bar. Now, when I tap the same button again, it casts Regrowth again instead of Rejuv, as expected. Why? because it's technically a different button.

So, if I put this macro on a side button, and instead have this macro on each of my bars:

/click MacaroonButton172

the actual sequencer on that button stays the same and it sequences through the spells exactly as expected, even if I get shapeshifted in the process. SWEET.

Now, if only I could find a way to have the /click macro button display the correct icon. Guess I'll just have to use "#show Regrowth" for now

What about #showtooltip MacaroonButton172
or something that points to the macro button with he castsequence?

Or perhaps make that button with the castsequenve always show and be non interactable.. clickthrough.. That is if you have the /click buttons on the same spot in all forms.

#macaroon-vehicleleave is for the correct icon.

Well, that falls outside the "without addons" part

I've heard about that problem before with the formswitching. I can say I have no such problem on my end and therefor no clue as to what's causing it.

The mouse wheel issue... as Macaroon overrides Blizzard bindings it should not happen. Even so, as it is happening, try just to clear the Blizzard binding then. if no blizzard action has your MWDown as a bind it should work fine.

My druid setup is a huge collection of Custom States for one bar, and I've run into this as well. The solution I've found is to:

1) go into binding mode. hover mouse over each button in normal caster state, then press they hotkey for each button as I pass the mouse over them. I watch as it shows numbers being added to each binding.
2) now hold down alt, and do it all again. I watch as a1, a2, a3 etc get added to each button.
3) now I let go of alt, and hold down shift and do it again. I watch as s1, s2, s3 get added...
now, I hold down both alt and shift, and do it again. I watch as as1, as2, etc get added.
4) now I shift to cat form, and do it again. 1, 2, 3...
5) hold down alt... then shift... then alt-shift...
6) now prowl... more bars... do again.
7) now shift to bear form... do again.

This seems to work for me.

And since someone is bound to ask, here's my state set.

[stance:0/2/4/5/6,nomod:alt,nomod:shift,nobonusbar:5]
[form:0,1,3,4,dead,nodead]
[stance:0/2/4/5/6,mod:alt,nomod:shift,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:0/2/4/5/6,mod:shift,nomod:alt,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:0/2/4/5/6,mod:alt,mod:shift,nobonusbar:5]
[bonusbar:5]
[stance:1,nomod:shift,nomod:alt,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:1,mod:shift,nomod:alt,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:1,mod:alt,nomod:shift,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:1,mod:alt,mod:shift,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,nomod:shift,nomod:alt,nostealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,mod:shift,nomod:alt,nostealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,mod:alt,nomod:shift,nostealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,mod:alt,mod:shift,nostealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,nomod:shift,nomod:alt,stealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,mod:shift,nomod:alt,stealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,mod:alt,nomod:shift,stealth,nobonusbar:5]
[stance:3,mod:alt,mod:shift,stealth,nobonusbar:5]

Note that the second one is there to work around what seems to be a BUG in macaroon... the second one has no buttons. For some reason, when I have more than 10 states, the 11th state and further show a copy of the second state's buttons under their own.

BTW, I do this all so that I can squeeze EVERYTHING any class can do onto my nostromo N52 speedpad.

...Now, if only I can figure out how to have several buttons, one on each custom state that all /click a common Macaraoon button. For example, I have a button that contains a macro that dismounts, shifts to caster form, or cancel's Prowl depending on my current state, and I have several copies of that same macro on various bars. So, if I edit that macro, I have to edit it several times, or at least edit it once and copy it back to all those bars. I'd rather edit it once, and have several buttons that just /click the master macro.

please fix this great addon

There is no need to rebuild your bars and buttons. Your old profiles (pre cata) will work. It is however essential you do not use the deleted modules of Macaroon like MacaroonLoot or MacaroonCB. These will produce a huge number of errors and most probably cause Macaroon and possibly wow to crash.

About the unmount button, if you are a passenger you will not get a vehicle UI, and therefor no exit button. The vehicle UI pops when you have spells/abilities for a vehicle and doesn't pop when you have no such.
This is perhaps a small bother.

However it's easy to handle, make a 1 button bar for these cases, make it autohide if you want to and then type the macro to leave your vehicle.

Code:

#macaroon-vehicleleave
/click VehicleMenuBarLeaveButton

or even

Code:

/run VehicleExit()
