[Request] Macro Targeting Gelp

[shakeme]

I would like a macro that could do either one of these functionalities:
Cast spell on party member 2, without dropping current target
or
Cast spell on specified name, without dropping current target

Are either of these possible?

Not entirely sure due to lack of testing, but could try the following.

/cast [@party2] spell

/cast [@player] spell

Just substitute player for the name of the character, and spell being the spell obviously.
For those curious, @ was introduced in a patch as a shorter form of target= - it operates exactly the same.

Sure is:

/cast [@party2]Flash Heal


/cast [@Bob]Flash Heal

Casting on a specific name is only possible if that name is a player in your party/raid.

PS: What would happen if I named my character "mouseover" and healers were using "@mouseover" macros?

I shouldn't think you can name yourself or your pet mouseover.
