You can only estimate range by checking to see if other spells/abilities with a different distance are in range.

Blizzard does not want an addon to know what direction a target is in. There used to be one addon that calculated this, but they intentionally broke it.

You cannot cast spells with a targeting ring automatically at your target because Blizzard wants you to actively choose where this spell goes. You choose where your cursor is. You choose where your character is. You do not choose where your target is.
