Quick question about actionbar API

[shalom69]

Hey what is the API function to move a spell or macro to a slot on the action bar? I know there are various SetBinding() calls in the WOW API to bind specific things to keybinds but I'm wondering how to move specific macros or spells to an actual button on an action bar. I've looked but I must be a nob because I can't seem to identify the proper entry.

for example to move Focus Fire from the #5 button on Action Bar 1 to button #4 equivalent to pressing shift button to move it manually

thanks in advance to anyone who can forward me that info

PickupAction(5)
PlaceAction(4)
ClearCursor()

thanks dude

I was on the API list searching up and down for "button" "bar" and "action" for half an hour with no success and of course after you point out the function, I read its description and "action" and "bar" jump right out at me lol

looks like it's a protected function, so I'll have to do some more thinking about how I want to implement my code but appreciate the pointer

They're only protected while in combat lockdown. Outside of combat lockdown you can pickup and place actions as much as you like from insecure code.

Does LibActionButton-1.0 help you? Or its API?
