    Hello dear Maintainers,

    Thanks for keeping this project alive and updating it. Please see my detailed request below.

     

    Request: Let RMB click-through so that it can be used to change camera angle while cursor is hovering on Grid2 frames

    Rationale: As a healer that rely on @mouseover macros, moving mouse out of Grid2 just to change camera angle and bring it back into Grid2 to heal is cumbersome at best and time-wasting at worse. Having this option, lets me leave my mouse within Grid2's frame so I can quickly react and cast spells while being able to move the camera around for mechanics and ...

    Current State: Grid2 has an option for RMB that only enables/disables right-click menu

    Caveat: Adding this will cause other addons such as Clique lose access to binding for RMB. However this can only affect RMB in Clique and a right-click with modifiers such as Ctlr/Shift should still work in Clique.Grid2 will need to properly warn users that enabling this option will cause RMB stop working on unit frames.

    OtherAptechka is a similar unit/raid frames addon that has this functionality.

    Healer main here. It's possible to create this exact functionality already, by binding a mouselook script macro to RMB in Clique.

     

    /run if IsMouselooking() then MouselookStop() else MouselookStart() end

    Thanks for help @Araiia ,but I cannot make it work somehow.

    So I have unchecked the Right Mouse Button Option in Grid2 settings and added a new macro for Right Click in Clique.

    Anything else I should be doing

    Try going to the Clique general options and enable the option:

     

    "Trigger bindings on the 'down' portion of the click (experimental)"

     

    Using this simplified line in the macro should work too:

    /run MouselookStart()

    Thanks michaelsp, and thanks for keeping this mod fantastic.

     

    I am guessing you will not be adding this as an option into Grid2 :)

    You are correct, I added the macro to the "common issues/faq" section, for future references.
