Is it a particular button? Is the button bound to a target changing keybind like the Tab key or F1 to F5 if it happens in groups?

no anywhere. You miss a key by a pic and it changes to what ever in front of you.

If I understand correctly, when you miss clicking on something by a few pixels, you just want your click to be ignored, instead of clicking on whatever is in the game world behind the button you tried to click.

Other than the obvious "stop clicking your buttons" recommendation the simplest solution would probably be for you to use kgPanels. Set up a panel behind each action bar or other object you're clicking on. Make it transparent so you can't see it (or give it a visible background if you want) and enable the mouse on it, but don't set a click script on it. Then, when you miss the button, you'll click the panel instead, and it will basically be like you clicked on nothing, because the panel will catch your click and do nothing.

How is that going to stop the taarget change? I want the panel to be a stop. So it dont see that in front of it. So if i mouse over the panel all it sees is the panel. Maybe iam not puting this down right. For that iam sorry.

Do you mean...

Are you referring to targets becoming unselected when you click the screen?

If so, then you'll find sticky targeting in: Game Menu -> Interface -> Controls -> Sticky Targeting

It would stop the target change because you would not be clicking on the game world or on anything in the game world (like players, mobs, or mailboxes). You would basically have a small "dead zone" around your buttons, so that when you missed clicking on the button, your click would be totally ignored by everything.
