Possible to use mouse clicks ?

[Shania]

Hello, is it possible to set up isboxer to use mouse clicks instead of like 0-9 for spells etc ?

Basically set it up so whatever i mouse click on screen is broadcasted too my slaves without using the broadcasting because that would send the toons silly and all over the place ?

Great question. I have wondered this exact same thing.... I would have added the word easy... is there an "easy" way to do it heh

Yes to both of you.

First, please read through the WoW Quick Start guide, at the top of this forum. May even need to read it a few times.. there is a lot of info in there.

Specifically this section...


There are two ways of toggling Key Maps
Hit the hotkey Shift+Alt+M
or, if the icons as shown to the right are visible, click the "A,Z" button on the left to give it gray arrows. The icon is showing that, when enabled, this feature may translate a key into a different key than you pressed in different windows (which, as we are discussing, may make it difficult to enter your password or type in a chat window, etc)
Tip: While we have you looking at the icons, you might be wondering how to move them. The Quick Setup Wizard told you on the last page, but here it is again. Hit Ctrl+Shift+Alt+G to bring up the in-game ISBoxer Control Panel, and then the Click Bar can be dragged to wherever you like. After moving it, click Sync to put it in the same position on all windows, and click Save to save the position for the next time you launch the game.


Pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+G will get you into the ISBoxer control Panel... (the above needs to be updated slightly, but its still accurate), I believe its the second tab at the top "Regions"

on the repeater reagion panel, choose from the frist drop down menu and choose "all others"
click ADD.
drag your newly made red highlighted bar to your spell bar area.
resize the red highlighted box to fit how big or small you want it... keep in mind, your mouse will broadcast EVERYWHERE the red and the blue title area is.
back to the menu panel, click on "SYNC"
press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+G again.

done.

where ever you put that window, your mouse will now effectively display on all client windows.

The below thread is for healbot example, but you get the general idea.

A repeater region is a defined area, which passes mouse clicks from the current window to the target or targets of choice.

You pick the slot that receives the click, or can send the click to an Action Target Group, with any number of toons in it.

It is great, when you just want to pass a click, for example to have your Healer click on the Grid/Vuhdo/Healbot frame for the toon that needs a heal. (You would need an alphabetical sort, on all windows, and to position the frames the same on each for this).

Also take a look at Clickbars.
These are icons, which can be clicked upon, and are tied to (run by clicking) mapped keys.

The important part is to make the mapped key do what you want.
Then tie the clickbar to it, with Target: Current Window for the Clickbar.
The mapped key, will determine what is done and who does it; but you want the clickbar to know the click is supposed to come from the current window.

You could overlay a clickbar over your DPS keys (one clickbar button, per DPS key which you'd like to be clickable).
Which would then run FTL Assist Me, and send that button ("1", for example) to all windows.
And this would function the same as FTL DPS Key: 1.
Rather than having a button clicked, but the mapped key not run.

I also have this partially-written guide that explains how to do set up one big Click Bar Button that works like a Repeater Region, except adds auto-assist: http://isboxer.com/wiki/WoW:Auto-assisting_Action_Bars_via_clicking (http://isboxer.com/wiki/WoW:Auto-assisting_Action_Bars_via_clicking)

That is neat.

It is simple and fast.
And gets you mouse clicks with assists.
I like it.

Well, the clickbar portion isn't there yet.
But the mapped key portion is.

This is really, really cool!

I think you could use this to mimic unit frame click casting in games that don't allow addons (rift, I'm glaring at you).
