View Full Version : [ISBoxer] Weird issues with repeater and in game UI, + random question

1. When launching the in-game UI on my main monitor the mouse does not show up. I have to click out of the game then I am able to drag my mouse back to the UI and the mouse will show up. For some reason it works perfectly fine on my alts on my second monitor.

2. Repeater regions work fine on my alts. If I create one on them I can repeat to my main window or others. This is the exact opposite of what I need. If I try it on my main, all it does it create the gray area on my alt, but the mouse is not passed over.

3. Repeater region winds up in a completely different area than intended on the other windows. Do all of my windows have to be in the same resolution for this to work?

If I can get these sorted it will be awesome because I will finally be able to heal from my tank window!!

Now for the less important question:

I could have sworn I read somewhere that ISboxer is somehow able to mimmick /click macros? Ever since they went away I know my DPS has suffered. Is it possible to recreate /click behavior with this tool?

Thanks.

You could probably make a /click style macro with IS Boxer.

You'd likely have a mapped key for each spell, in the priority sequence.
And give it a couple of steps.
Do the spell on the first step.
Have it do nothing at all on the second step.
And set that to not advance for at least, "x" seconds.

And then have a master mapped key, with multiple steps.
Set to execute a step on press or release.
And each step calls one of the priority mapped keys, in sequence.

It wouldn't be perfect...
Because IS Boxer has no way to know if a spell has fired off or not.
Only that the keybind has been given, or the wow-macro action has been called.
And even if you were on the GCD when the mapped key was called... it would be on the "cannot advance" second step for a while thereafter.

The two-step macros are fairly good for a boxer.

I screwed around with it some more yesterday and still can't get it to work. I should probably create a video soon demonstrating what I am doing and maybe someone will figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Nevermind, I figured it out. I was adding the repeater region on my main window, not my alt. I didn't realise you had to do it the other way around.

I successfully set it up with windows of the same size and resolution. Am I correct in that my healer resolution needs to be the same as my main window (tank) resolution?

yes for the mouse repeater to work and be accurate, the resolution must be the same for each game window.

Also, is there a way to set the names of the windows? I don't want them to launch as is1, is2, etc. Can I set it to something else?
