/click command in Macaroon?

Hey, I've been searching for any information on this - how can I do a /click command and refer to a Macroon bar?

/click MacaroonActionButton97

Certainly doesn't work. Any thoughts?



My goal is this: I want to have the "Targeted Quest item of the day" (something that needs to have a corpse/etc selected) and then drag that item to the button - which then invokes a [target=focustarget].

So this:

/use [target=focustarget] Gore Bladder

Would become something like this:

/click [target=focustarget] ActionButton43

With the Gore Bladder being the object in ActionButton43



Ideas?

/click MacaroonButton#

I found this handy script one the WOW UI+Macros forum

Put that in a action slot, click, it'll tell you what button it is (MacaroonButton1337, ActionButton12, etc)

Code:

---

/run local f = GetMouseFocus(); if f then DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(f:GetName()) end

---

Thanks, that worked great!

/target [target=focustarget]
/click MacaroonButton114
/targetlasttarget

I then created button 114 as a rather large, easy to drag to button.

There is a way to do it in the Vanilla WoW interface, but you have to use the right syntax. If I recall correctly:

ActionButtonX
BottomLeftActionButtonX
BottomRightActionButtonX
LeftActionButtonX
RightActionButtonX

X is 1 through 12. ActionButton is your main bar, Bottom Left and Bottom right are for those action bars, and left and right refer to the 2 action bars you can put up on the right side.

Assuming I got the syntax right there.

I just ran into something similar earlier and found a macro that you can add to a key-bound button that will help you find the proper reference button name to use with /click in regular macros:

Code:

---

/run local f = GetMouseFocus(); if f then DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(f:GetName()) end

---

make that as a macro and drag it to a button that is already bound to a key - like the main action bar button 1 for example (bound to 1)

then you hover the mouse over the addon's button who you'd like to reference via /click and hit "1" - the name of the button will print in the general text chat pane.

I used this with AutoBar to find the names of the food and health potion buttons to make this sweet macro:

Code:

---

#showtooltip super healing potion
/click [combat] AutoBarButtonCooldownPotionHealthFrame
/click [nocombat] AutoBarButtonFoodFrame

---

Which will eat my best current food in inventory when out of combat, or use my best current health potion when in combat - that's like super useful to have autobar figuring that junk out instead of always having to alter the macro to change food types or potion sizes.

Great tips! Thanks for the information guys. I am seriously reconsidering my setup because of this - which will simplify things greatly.
