Self Cast Key Not Working

[Kechlion]

Has anyone else had an issues with their cast on self hot key not working? Mine is Alt and I use it while healing to heal on myself so I don't have to change targets. It's highly frustrating that it doesn't work. Anybody else experiencing this?

Did one of your addons rebind the key? Is it still designated the Self Cast key in the Interface menu?

[Kechlion]

Yep, it is still bound. I have bartender and it is also bound in there too.

Try changing it to another key (briefly) and seeing if that key will work.

If it does, then something may be wrong with your ALT key. If it doesn't, then there's something worse wrong.

I did try changing it >> and my alt key works fine, I use it for vent and it works.

Hmmm. I'd try disabling all of your addons, then seeing if the stock UI will allow it, then enabling them one at a time. It totally sounds like some addon interference to me.

But but but...

Yeah that's probably what I will end up doing. It's just annoying because it was working fine before the patch and now it's not. It has actually gotten me killed once because I kept trying to heal myself that way ><

I just tell the game to auto self-cast when I'm targeting something I can't cast on (like an enemy, when I'm casting a heal, or if I'm in a group, I'll tab to the boss or select myself). It works for me, but I can see the value in alt-casting instead.

just remember if you ever play a healer, never bind any heals to f4...
