Duration / macros

[Myriana]

Hi,
Is it technically possible to have durations on a macro button placed in the action bar?

Ex:
Immolate: duration ok
Macro /cast Immolate: no time displayed

[Nobgul]

Yes. I use ncCooldown for my cd timers. And it shows on my macro's

Did you use
#showtooltip
/cast spell

[Myriana]

#showtooltip immolate 
/use 10 
/cast [@pettarget]Firebolt 
/cast Immolate

ncCooldown doesn't work.

duration (timer) <> cooldown

[Xrystal]

change it to #showtooltip Immolate ( capital i )

Also set the icon to the ? I think it is symbol so that it uses the showtooltip spell image automatically.

[Myriana]

Thank you for your answer but it makes no difference.
I still do not have the nUi blue numbers on button.

[Xrystal]

Hmm, let me check my macro buttons and see if they still work. I am sure they used to work fine.

What do you mean by duration? The time from when you cast it until when you can use it again?

I presume by duration you mean the time remaining on the spell as cast on the target as opposed to the cooldown timer. That is a feature that has never worked and frankly I'm not sure how I could make it work.

The way that the duration timer works on a button is to match the action on the button with the aura on the target. If they match, then the time remaining on the aura is displayed on the action bar while the target is active. The problem with macro's is there's no way for nUI to match the action(s) in the macro with the aura on the target.
