    Announce Macro help

    I use elvui raid frames and clique never have a "target" when healing just simply click on the unit frames..

    is it possible to make a macro that will announce Ring Of Peace on the person whos name i just used that spell on w/o having them targeted?

    would like to announce it in 10man and or whisper


    if not are there alternatives like addons that will do that?

    thanks

    something I dug up from googling, not tested:

    Code:
    /run local t,u="Ring of Peace","mouseover" if GetSpellCooldown(t)==0 and IsSpellInRange(t,u) then SendChatMessage("Ring of Peace on ".. UnitName(u),GetNumRaidMembers()~=0 and "RAID" or "PARTY") end
    /cast [@mouseover,help] Ring of Peace

    I don't understand. That is pretty much exactly what you are looking for only in addon form?

    Hi esevenf the addon you suggest is pretty cool yet to my knowledge and looking through the option it just announces what I'm using but not who I'm using it on.

    specifically Ring Of peace I'd like the person, party and or raid to know who has it so they can move with it accordingly. Again problem being i dont ever target ppl when i heal i use clique and just click mouse keybinds over their unit frames.. so how to announce

    Esevnf has Ring of Peace without having him as a target is my problem

    I use RSA with Clique as well and it has no problem announcing my Paladin hands, sacred shield and so forth to the raid. You don't need to have a raidmember targeted for it to work.

    Granted, I didn't try it on a monk as I don't have one at the moment but I am sure it works just the same on a monk.

    we're speaking two different languages or my english is foreign to you. The problem is not the announcing...the problem is finding a way to announce who its on

    Mouseover should also work in unit frames and grid/clique.

    Try this one, i got it working with my nourish:

    Code:
    /run local t,u,c="Ring of Peace","mouseover", IsInRaid() and "RAID" or "PARTY" if GetSpellCooldown(t)==0 and IsSpellInRange(t,u) then SendChatMessage("Ring of Peace on ".. UnitName(u),c) end
    /cast [@mouseover,help] Ring of Peace

    The addon is plenty capable of including the name of who the spell was used on.
