I use set focus for DPS and healing. I NEEDS it.

That's a known problem with addons unfortunately. You will have to use the /focus command to make your target your focus. typing /focus without a target will remove the focus frame.

[Vlad]

And /clearfocus will remove it no mater what you target. ^^

[Chmee]

What does /foggyfocus do?

Thanks Vlad, I knew there was a command to do that but my macros always used /focus to make things easier.

[Verttex]

Can I get an macro that is, if a target is selected and i have no focus it does /focus and if i click it again and i still have that focus it will /clearfocus?

[Xrystal]

My sheep macro was as simple as this:

#showtooltip Polymorph
/cast [button:2,@focus] Polymorph;
/focus [nobutton:2];

I'm not sure if a test for an existing focus is available but maybe the following will do what you want.

#showtooltip Polymorph
/cast [button:2,@focus] Polymorph;
/focus [nobutton:2,noexists];
/clearfocus [nobutton:2,exists];

button 2 is the right mouse, so nobutton 2 means left or other button.

/focus [@focus,noexists]

/clearfocus [@focus,exists]

[Xrystal]

Thanks seerah, still figuring out those conditionals

[Seer]

/focus [mod:alt]
/clearfocus [mod:ctrl]; [target=focus,dead]
/stopmacro [mod:ctrl]; [nocombat,mod:alt]
/focus [target=focus,noexists]
/cast [target=focus] Fear

/focus [mod:alt]
/clearfocus [mod:ctrl]; [target=focus,dead]
/stopmacro [mod:ctrl]; [nocombat,mod:alt]
/focus [target=focus,noexists]
/cast [target=focus] Banish

etc etc
