Display pet icon on a multi pet macro

I have a multi-pet macro and I want to display the pet icon.
Lua Code:
  1. #showtooltip [mod:ctrl]Argent Gruntling;[mod:alt]Lil' Ragnaros;[mod:shift]Lil' XT;
  2. /summonpet [mod:ctrl]Argent Gruntling;[mod:alt]Lil' Ragnaros;Lil' XT
This macro does not display the pet image.

I can use a multi-mount macro that works fine;
Lua Code:
  1. #showtooltip
  2. /use [mod:ctrl]Sandstone Drake;[mod:alt]Mighty Caravan Brutosaur;[mod:shift]Grand Expedition Yak;Traveler's Tundra Mammoth
Is there a way to get the pet macro to display the pet icon correctly?

Just a quick observation, when #showtooltip has nothing following it the image will change based upon the later macro behaviour (imagine castsequence), I would consider removing all text after #showtooltip and try again.

Hi liamnap

Yes I have tried it as #showtooltip without the extra line, but still no go.

Is it possible the apostrophe in the name is causing a hiccough. Can you test it out on some pet names that just have letters and numbers in ?

Hi Xrystal

Yes, I have now tried it with pets that do not have the apostrophe in their name, but still no luck.

I just tried this using a variety of hints on wiki.gg but no real examples there. But even the simplest summonpet macro doesn't display the icon. Which, makes me wonder if they simply didn't set it up for the /summonpet command.

Hi Xrystal

Yes, it is strange as it works perfectly for toys and mounts but doesn't work for pets.

I will submit it as a bug on the Bliz forums.

Cheers

Is it possible to use /cast, /castsequence or /summonrandom?

https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wo...my-cat/1128760

I think summonpet is a singular call, but using /cast with SHIFT+CLICK for the pets may work based on what I can see and things I've done before without pets. I think I did a summonrandom for specific mounts.
