Binding Spells to Keys?

[alcattle]

unclear to your problem but IS assigns macros to keys. When setting things up, it asks you to hit a key. A bar manager might work also for putting a click for the key.

Where in IS can I assign a macro to a key? I have read through most of the walkthroughs for ISboxer and was still confused as to where I can do that.

If you Right Click on Actions, and select:
- Keystroke Actions > New World of Warcraft Macro Action

You'll need to assign a "Key Combination" which is a unique warcraft keybind.
This is something which you can push in-game to run that macro.
You'll still run this mapped key via the hotkey you assign, but could run it via the key combination too.

You have the option to "Display in Step", as whatever you want.
So while your macro might be, "/cast [nostance:3] Cat Form", you might display it as "Become a Kitty".

You have the option for, but first:
- Assist hot (active) character
- Target hot (active) character
And:
- And restore (previous) target afterwards.

The macros you create with IS Boxer are limited to 1024 characters (like other macro making addons), not the default 255.

You can also use {FTL} arguments in the macro.
{FTL} refers to the active character.

Ualaa -

I'm not sure where to do the instructions you listed. When I open up ISBoxer I don't see an "Actions" anywhere. The nearest thing to "Actions" is "Action Target Groups".

On the top window pane of ISBoxer I have -Characters; -Character Sets; -Key Maps (+General, +Control, +FTL DPS Keys, +WoW Key Bindings); -Window Layouts; +Repeater Profiles; +Click Bars; Action Target Groups; +Virtual Files; Computers.

I can click on any of those to have a new tree appear in the lower left pane and clicking on any of that list then brings up other options, but I think I've clicked and right clicked them all and can't find "Actions" anywhere.

I know I must be a total newb not being able to figure this out or find it.

Can you point me in the right direction? We might have to pretend that I'm not smarter than a 5th grader.

Thanks

This is what I do:

on the top part expand "key maps" and click on General. The bottom left section will show you "General" with expanded "Mapped Keys". Right-click on "Mapped Keys" and click "New Mapped Key".

Now click on the newly formed "New Mapped Key" and click the "hotkey" section on the right hand side to choose a key you want to press (let's say Num1). Also select whether you want FTL to apply to this mapped key (under "World of Warcraft: Use FTL Modifiers")

go back to the left-hand-side and right- click on 1 (below "Steps"). Now select "Keystroke Actions->New Keystroke action"

Under "Target" select which windows will receive the command

Under "Key Combination "select what the windows will receive (I.e. if your macro is on Num1, press Num1).

Save, Export to Innerspace, Bob's your uncle.
