Just a little drama---- hope you can help
I run main and 1 alt
1- I CONTINUE TO need to alt tab out and into the 2nd wow- for follow. My main out runs alt? Can I put a macro on MAIN that makes ALT re-follow on me?
2- i do not understand the spread out macro. My alt sometimes faces away from main and does not cast properly.
3- i want main and alt to cast lightning bolt,, i DO have that set up. How can I get alt to heal main in stead of bolt if needed?

Hi :)

no the alt will need to have the follow macro

1 - on your alt create a macro :

/focus Party1
/stand
/follow focus

and bind that to a key - also sets your focus to your brain which is nice

or use twobox toolkit which will set the alt to autofollow, details of this and other addons are at : http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Addon_Codex

For the spread out macro when casting: mmm I only ever spreadout when showing off in town :) for general pve I don't bother as it's not necessary for most things.

For the heals, bind a heal macro to another key or use a modifer - personally I go for separate macros.

For all your macro needs http://www.dual-boxing.com/wiki/index.php/Macros ('../wiki/index.php/Macros') it's all in there so just decide wether you going to use target or focus for everything and copy/paste away

Yes it is exactly the right place for the questions.

Spread out macro
There isn't one, you can't move from a macro, only from a direct key press. BUT as the UI allows you to bind 2 keys to each direction, you could use the second bindings for spread out functions e.g. binding page up to left on main and right on clone will cause them to step away from each other.
