I know 2 posts in 2 days but here goes,

I was trying to set a focus frame and got the Error : this feature is only usable by the Blizzard UI disable nUI and reload

is there a way to get this to work or am i missing something

Thats a standard addon related problem whereby blizz doesn't want addons to allow you to right click and select focus. All you can do is select the target and type /focus to active the focus screen.

Yeah... as Xrystal pointed out, this is a Blizz thing... it's a bug and they're aware of it but in no apparent hurry to fix it. You can work around it by using the '/focus' and '/clearfocus' commands to set your focus to the current target and to clear the focus. You can also set these up as macros and then stick them on your action bar (I use my bottom left action bar under the chat frame for that) -- then you can just click to set and clear your focus.

Or cheat :P

Just add this to the end of a macro you use...

Code:

/focus [button:2]

My Earth Shild Focus looks like...

Code:

/cast [nobutton:2, target=focus]  [nobutton:2, target=player] Earth Shield
/focus [button:2]
