Mouse over macro... help meh!

wownow1 · 02-10-09, 02:04 AM

I need some help for a macro. What I'm trying to do is a single button for mouse over = focus and if mouse over does not exsist, current target = focus. Can anyone help?

try this (untested)

/focus [target=mouseover][]

I have that part and that wasnt my question. I was saying this in regards to the whole macro. The second part is whats confuzing.

/focus [target=mouseover, exists][]

I have tryed that, this is what I have so far.

/focus [target=mouse over, exists]

This part is where I need the help. If I currently have a mouse over then I will have a focus. If I dont have a mouse over then I want my current target to be focus. So somthing within this following marco needs to change.

/focus [target=target]

that is not the same as what i posted, the [] is important and if you use exactly what i posted it will work.

**Seerah** · 02-10-09, 04:55 PM

ah, yep, forgot the exists part. And, yes. That's why we had the [] in there. You need to try it verbatim before saying it doesn't work.

yah my b.. what does the [] do?

**Seerah** · 02-10-09, 08:59 PM

tells it to still use the macro even if the other conditionals are not met

wownow1 · 02-10-09, 11:34 PM

/focus [target=mouseover, exists][], [target=target]

this works. thanks for the []!!!

That will focus your target no matter what. You want to do *just* /focus [target=mouseover, exists][]

If you really want to be more complicated, try this...

/focus [target=mouseover, exists, nodead][exists, nodead][target=focus][target=player]
/run if not UnitExists("focus") then ChatFrame1:AddMessage("ERROR:Copy/Paste failed due to user error, please press keys randomly until it works.") end

You do not need that extra ", [target=target]" at the end. The [] already does that for you as was already mentioned. And a comma (,) is not a valid separator for conditionals (what's in the brackets) anyway (why we didn't use them above).
