What this addon does

MacroBank is an addon to allow you to save macros for future use.

Features

• Create macros inside the macro bank without having to create them in the main macro window first.
• Macros can be given a category to group similar macros together.
• Categories can be within other categories (Use '\' in between categories: Category1\Category2\Category3)
• Macros can also be given a description to distinguish them between other macros with the same macro name.
• Change both the macro text and icon in the macro bank.
• Save a macro from the main macro window directly to the macro bank.
• Load a macro from the macro bank to your main macro list.
• Replace an existing macro with a macro from the macro bank.
• Delete a macro from the macro bank.
• Load macro groups when swapping talents.
• Send macros to other MacroBank users.

Usage

Opening MacroBank

• Open your normal macro window (/macro)

Saving Macros into the MacroBank

• Select the macro from the main macro window.
• If you have some categories already defined in the MacroBank, select the category for which to save the macro into. (If no category is selected/defined, a temporary category will be created)
• Click Save.

Creating Macros in the MacroBank

• Select a category in the MacroBank for which to create a new macro into. (If no category is selected/defined, a temporary category will be created)
• Click Create.

Loading macros from the MacroBank to your main macro window

• Select the macro from the MacroBank you wish to use.
• Select the tab in the main macro window you wish to load the macro into (General or Character Specific)
• Click Load.
• If the Macro with the same name exists, it will be replaced, otherwise a new macro will be created if there is enough room for another macro.

Replacing macros from the MacroBank into your main macro window

• Select the macro from the MacroBank you wish to use.
• Select the macro in the main macro window you wish to replace.
• Click Replace.

Deleting macros in the MacroBank

• Select the macro you wish to delete.
• Click Delete.

Changing Categories, Description, and Names of macros in the MacroBank

• Select the macro you wish to change
• Type in the new category, description, or name of the macro in the corresponding edit box.
• Press Enter to save it. (Why not as you type? Description/Category is used in the scroll window)

Changing the text of the macro in the MacroBank

• Select the macro you wish to change.
• Type in the new macro text.
• Changes should be saved as you type.

Sending a macro to other users of MacroBank

• Select the macro you wish to send.
• Click the 'Send To' button.
• Type in the name of the user and click 'Ok.'

Notes

• Shift-Clicking spells from the spell book will not insert text into MacroBank's edit boxes. This is code defined in the spell book, and I'm not sure I want to go messing with it. (Same goes for items from your bags or equipped inventory)
• MacroBank's window normally opens to the right of your main macro window. You may move it by dragging it to another location.
