I have a lock and shammy combo. I purchased Keyclone and have tried to have the lock as my main screen with the shammy in a small screen in the corner. Shile making healbot as large as possible i could see it rather well in the small screen allowing me to heal with my shammy. I tried a dungeon like this and did fairly wellm but it was complicated to keep track of my lock spell rotation while healing. Is there a way to use the healbot on the locks screen to make the shammy heal?
I have searched the forums and found that it can be done with ISBoxer, but i just purchased Keyclone and would like to use it.
I have searched the forumns for two days now and i can not find out any information on this. If you know a good guide then please post it. Thanks.

macro one:
/focus <lockname>
macro two:
/focus <shammyname>
some other assorted macros to focus your other party members, etc
then just make individual healing buttons
/cast [target=focus] Lesser Healing Wave
/cast [target=focus] Healing wave
/target focus
/cast chain heal
etc etc
is the simplest way to do it
alternately, have all of the lock's spells be
/cast [target=focus] Incinerate
etc etc
and then just have him be the targetting bitch for your shaman, so your shaman's spells look like
/assist <lock>
/cast <heal>
Also have a look around for lock macros - there are some good click ones here. Micromanaging is for single boxers. Us boxers put it all in one key and smash it like a monkey on speed. You're working too hard!

The way they have changed the UI, just click on the Heal spell with no target - Heal self. Click on target, click heal spell - heal target.

I like to have assist based heals.
Well, in addition to repeater region based heals, I mean.
The assist heals are pretty basic.
#show Heal Spell
<Insert Your Assist Method Here>
/cast [help][help, Target=TargetTarget] Heal Spell
You can abbreviate Target= with @, if you prefer.
Your healer will assist your active toon, be it party1, focus, or an FTL based assist.
If the active toon is targeting a friendly, the macro will fire off the heal.
If the target is not friendly, then [help] fails, so it moves to the next conditional.
That being, is the target's target friendly... which it almost always is, because the target is beating on someone on your team.

does mouseover also work for the player health bar?
you could make
/cast [herp,exists,nodead] target=mouseover <healspell>

Mouseover will work if you have a program that can pass mousepositions. I use mouseover healing exclusively with HKN, but I don't think it would work with Keyclone. The mouse broadcasting in Keyclone is not one of its strong suits and only works off a toggle if I recall.

Keyclone is very reliable and quick for keyboard broadcasting.
With only two toons, you can go with toon specific heals or with assist based heals.
Repeater regions and such will require IS Boxer or HKN.
Possibly others, but these seem to be the two best options for mouse broadcasting.
I'd personally recommend moving to IS Boxer.
Or HKN if you're happy with a script you find or are comfortable editing one.
But KC can work quite well, especially if you play mostly with keybinds.
