Tips and tricks for your own macro menusĬlasses have separate hotbars from the jobs they eventually become-for instance, a CNJ has separate hotbars from a WHM. If you would rather have a custom icon than a 6th page, it’s fairly trivial to do this (but back up your hotbars first just in case). You pretty much have to do this on purpose, so it’s not a real problem in use, but it’s a good thing to be mindful of.īecause this is a 15-line macro, you can’t add a /macroicon line and are limited to the default macro icon choices. If the macro is interrupted by an instance transition (like a teleport sequence), your hotbars will be left in a half-updated state and at least one of your pages will likely corrupt or duplicate. I placed the visible hotbar modifications as early as I could to make it feel more responsive, but the other copies still have to happen behind the scenes. If you’re switching pages at a leisurely pace, it won’t get in your way, but if you mash the button /macrolock will stop you.

The macro takes a small amount of time to execute while it performs the 14 required copy operations. I don’t make the rules, I just copy hotbars. If your navigation macros are in the same slot on each page, you can also keybind that slot for easy page switching. Since these hotbars are likely to be empty or filled with random garbage initially, you might want to move things around a bit to check that the macro is working. Click either macro to change the page forward or back (they will disappear), then repeat until all 6 pages show the navigation macros. If you don’t want a “page back” button at all, you don’t need one: pages loop and wrap around, so navigating in one direction only is totally fine.ĭrag the navigation macros to the preferred slots of the hotbars you set aside. This is sort of an ugly hack, but it’s what we’ve got and you won’t notice a difference in practice. If you want your menu to include page numbers, copy the “page back” macro to 6 separate macro slots, assigning each of them a numbered icon. When you’re done replacing, the result should look vaguely like this note that this is an older version of the macro. Find and replace $BAR1$ and $BAR2$ with the numbers of the hotbars that you set aside for this macro menu (in my case, that’s 7 and 8).

Find and replace $CLASS$ with the three-letter code of any unused class that isn’t Weaver, 1 like cnj for Conjurer or arc for Archer. Paste each of the macros below into your favorite text editor. Under Character Configuration > Hotbar Settings > Sharing, make sure they are marked as shared. The macroĭesignate two hotbars in your HUD for use with this macro. This is the simplest thing I could come up with that satisfied me and fit in the 15-line macro limit it uses 10 hotbars to store the 5 currently-unused pages, and another 2 for temporary storage. I also wanted to be able to modify it without needing to switch classes, unhide hotbars, or shuffle macro names. A lot of people have guides or examples up for expanding macro menus, using subcategories or showing/hiding temporary hotbars, but I wanted something static, simple, and with high capacity. You can Ctrl+F /hotbar on this page for exact details on the syntax.

This isn’t really a full-fledged post, but whatever.
