Macro display bug

On several characters I have one or more macro like this:

#showtooltip
/cast Judgement
/startattack

when I first log in it displays the default “?” icon on the action bar, to have it show the correct icon I have to open the “Create Macros” panel and select the macro in question, only then the icon will change to the expected one.
I already tried putting the /startattack on the second line, same thing

Irrelevant to your question, but why do you need /startattack there if judgement turns your attack on by default anyway?
If anything, you might wanna use /stopattack there.

It’s standart macro for DD:
#showtooltip
/startattack
/cast <spam_ability>
As spamability can be any attacks like Sinister Strike, Backstub, Maul, Claw, Heroic Strike etc. This macro will start autoattack even if you have no resource to activate ability.

This happen even without /startattack in macro. #showtooltip will show right skill icons after command /reload. Just after first login try this command. Sometime enough to change state (stealth, stance, form, mount).

Maybe it’s on cooldown or I’m out of mana

I relogged to be sure it wouldn’t become a questionmark.
I’m using #show charge for example.
Try this.

yes even /reload seems to work, but it is still annoying to see all “?” when I log in, and it’s clearly an interface bug, so I’m reporting it

Don’t know if you saw my reply.
But in your OP, i would use

#show judgement

Need to report in game. Here no reports. US forum have Classic Reports section.
P.S. Yeap, “?” is annoying, but it’s not most bad bug. For me, as example, very sad bug with Energy ticks.

Question, do you have another macro with the same name? I know in the vanilla client it would mess up macros if you had same name (sometimes I would give a macro a single space as name), but I’m not sure about Classic.

/reload also works

Ok guys I found a solution, everything works fine if you put a conditional, even an empty one, so for example

#showtooltip
/cast Mortal Strike
/startattack

Displays the correct icon and tooltip, without “” it gives the reported issue

(btw #show and #showtooltip with the parameter did not make any difference)
