2 state macros and isboxer

[Perrigrin]

So, I adopted the alternating 2 state macros for my hunter dps that I play with my pally tank (using isboxer), works decent -- but, I have an issue that I cant figure out how to work around, and I'm not sure if it's better in here or in the software tools forum - as it's kinda related to isboxer as well.

When I play my tank with dps boxed, I want to play my tank as I normally do - which means no 1 button spam - I use 5-6 buttons in rotation depending on the situation and rather not go to a 1 button macro.

I bound all these buttons in isboxer so that they do my 2 state macro on the hunter - BUT, the challenge now is that the 2 state is per button on the pally - which means I dont quite the the alternating behaviour I want.

So, is there a clever way of making a number of buttons work against he exact same set of actions? Ie I want

1,2,3 and a few more all bind to the same 2 actions alternating my 2 dps macros...not sure I'm making sense :p

First - I dont think you can play a character boxed as you would do solo.

solution 1) use alt+something for the 2-step macro and 1,2,3,... for your tank (or any other combination)

solution 2) put one close to optimal rotation for your tank in a 2-step macro and use your mouse for any out-of-order actions

You could create most of your boxing macros as IS Boxer macros.
As in, made within the Toolkit.

That way, if you launch via Inner Space in the system tray, you have all the IS Boxer macros and such.
But if you launch via the Warcraft icon tied to launcher.exe or wow.exe, then you don't have those macros.

If you want all the macros to be in game.
Have IS Boxer interpret "1" (or whatever key you spam) to be two steps.
Step 1 sends Alt+Ctrl+[, and Step 2 sends something like Alt+Ctrl+].
Put the spam macros on a hidden bar, that has buttons key bound to those hotkeys.
It won't impact your boxing play, since you are spamming an easy key and isboxer is interpreting it as Hotkey A then Hotkey B, rather than your normal actual key.
Then put your one-box stuff on whatever keys you want.
If you launch with isboxer your spam key sends different things that if you launch with wow.exe

Thanks for the input guys, ill go for the "have a separate spam key" solution that will do nothing on the main and DPS on the boxed char.
