Ok i use keyclone but it wont let me do what i want. Well i don't think it will. So i need some help.
I am using /a focus and have F5-F8 to change leaders on the fly i also have keyclone to switch from screen to screen to whoever i have as the leader. I want to when i puss tab my leader to change targets and all other clear target throw a macro( /cleartarget ). But also need it to when i change leaders that the new leader presses tab and all the others clear target.
maybe with autohotkey it can be done. Oh yeah im 4 boxing

Can anyone help me out?

If I'm following you correctly, I use something similar. I have F8-F12 to change my leader, but whatever key you want to use will work. There are basically 3 parts to make it work.

1. In key clone assign the picture swapping how you want it - i.e. F8 puts toon1 on the big screen, F9 swaps to toon2, etc. This part is all done in the keyclone setup screens.

2. Assign a macro to each of your toons and bind them to the F8-F12 keys. All this macro does is set your focus target - i.e. /Focus toon1. You make these macro's the same throughout all your toons. So when you press F8, keyclone puts toon 1 on the big screen and all your toons set that toon as their focus. F9 does the same except it does it for toon 2, etc.

3. Macro all your commands for all your toons to target whatever the focus target is targeting. (i.e. /cast [target=focustarget] spellname). So then reguardless of whoever your leader is, whenever you hit a jey to cast a spell all your toons will cast at the same target. If you switch leaders and target something else - everyone will automatically adjust.

That do what you want?

you could also add TAB to your do-not-pass list

another thought would be to add TAB to the region-based-keymap and it would map to leader.target.select which would be mapped to /assist focus on your alts. this way, when you tab, your alts would automagically have the same target (or you could map it to /cleartarget)

would that do what you're looking for?

OK jak3676 (http://www.dual-boxing.com/member.php?u=22841) i have your 1. 2. and some what 3 done already. i just have it as /a focus on the 1st line. And have it like if i press 1 it cast lighting bolt and if i push Shift + 1 it cast Lesser Healing wave. So if i use /cast [target=focustarget] spellname) i don't have enough room in the 225 b/c i use /castsequence and have like 3 things so i run out of room.

Yes thats what i want but how to you set up region-based-keymap? I also have TAB to do-not-pass list
I cant get that to work. I have V1.8k and just have keymaping.

Hmm, I guess I don't use enough alt+key or ctrl+key things to make it a problem.

I'd start my making the jump to 1.9i. Works great so far. I think all the older versions are past their support date anyway.
