Hi,
I’ve recently experienced an issue where suddenly all of my mouse-over macros stopped working and I’m trying to understand why it happened and what can I do to prevent it in the future. Please let me know if based of what I’ve described you can determine what happened and why.
All of the abilities were being cast on my character instead of mouse-over target, no matter if i was targeting player model or party frame. I was also not getting the menu that pops up after you right click someone’s party frame.
To fix it i tried:
/reload
disable all add-ons and then reload
Both did not fix the issue. Once i did manage to fix it by turning on and off the game but then i had another instance where that did not solve it either.
Overall, I’ve encountered this issue 4 times, two of which were during a dungeon (the Dawnbreaker), one before Mists and one which was right after (Grim Batol) .
I did notice that at least twice when this happened i did have some internet/small game freeze before the issue occurred. During mists (the latest time this happened) it also caused the login screen to the dungeon to be different that usual, it had some kind of frame on both sides, which only changed after i completely turned off and on the game.
I am using a keyboard keys for all this macros, here is an example of a macro that i use:
#showtooltip Renewing Mist
/cast [@mouseover,nodead,help] [@player] Renewing Mist
Here’s the list of add-ons that i use, although after disabling all add-ons the issue persisted so I’m not sure if they are to blame:
