Problem with clicking portraits.

[Milagroso]

Or maybe its not a problem, its a feature.

So before I discovered nUI I was using Spartan UI with Grid/Cliques (I play a priest). It was working out fine for me except I had one problem, I had too much stuff cluttering my screen. Namely the battle map (which I must have up at all times or I go insane) and the chat box. So then I discovered nUI and found how awesome it is. I particularly like how it puts the chatframe on the dashboard and how it puts the battlemap in a nice convenient place I can switch off when I don't need it.

But, I am having an issue I need help with. When I right click a portrait, say to leave a party or open trade with a player, I start healing them instead. The right click menu only appears if they are OOR. I found this out the hardway. I was flying with a friend, right clicked his portrait so I could put on the auto follow and instead started to heal him which knocked me off my mount and sent me plunging to my doom.

This might be with something n my grid/cliques I don't know. But I need that to work too. I don't have this problem on my other characters (that don't heal) so I'm thinking I either enabled something I shouldn't have or this is because caused by grid/clique.

Now, of course I don't need grid since nUI puts all the portraits down on my dashboard. So I can remove that... right?

I do need clique though so hopefully there is a way around this.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Actually, now that I think about it, what I really need to do is find someway to access that right clicked menu without right clicking the portrait. Does that make sense?

nUI automatically integrates with Clique if you have it installed. If you have a spell attached to the right click then that's what's going to happen. Generally, left click is assigned to targeting, right click to the menu and everything else to whatever makes you happy.

If you have told Clique to replace the right-click menu feature with a spell, then that's kind of what you're stuck with. It might be possible, however, have Clique assign some other click sequence to the menu.

You are correct. I disabled all my addons except for nUI and sure enough, when I right click I get the menu like I'm suppose to. I didn't have this problem with Spartain UI though. It behaved one way when I clicked on the Grid bars and another way when I clicked on the portrait bars.

I remember that I didn't like having the default spartanUi raid frames, and removed that with the HideBlizzard addon. So actually, I never did get portraits unless that person was targeted. This was a problem at first, but I worked around it by assigned Alt-Middle to target a person in the Grid bar, which put their portrait at the bottom. Then I could right click that portrait as normal.

If there isn't another way around this then I'm going to have to figure something else out. I really like where nUI puts the chat and battle map, plus the rep bar changing over automatically the way it does is so cool.

I'd just remap the click if I could but I'm running out of mouse/key clique combinations that are easy to remember.

By the way... /nUI movers is a very, very cool feature.

Hopefully another Clique user will pop in with some suggestions on this.

I don't think that Spartan's unit frames are compatible with Clique, which is what that wasn't a problem for you with Spartan.

[Milagroso]

Ah, so then it IS a feature.

Technically, yes... nUI's unit frames are click-casting enabled so they work with any click-casting addon like Clique. I don't think that's true of SpartanUI's unit frames, but I may be mistaken on that.
