I am trying to create a macro to use a scrapbot contsruction kit and put a raid target icon on it. It will use the kit and post the message to chat but nothing I have tried will set the icon. So far I have:
/party scrapbot down
/use scrapbot construction kit

Like I said no problems with the chat or use item part just can’t get an icon seton it. If any one can help me to figure out how to set it it will be greatly appreciated

Just add the icons

Put them in the Interface folder and you will have them in your macro menu

This is all nice…but how do you select the ICONS to show on the macro?…i dont mean the target…but the button bars themselves.

Since the targeting thingys dont show as spells, I cant figure out how to make the macro and have bartender show the icons on the bar for each of the various raid target icons.

I have created an 8 button bartender4 bar at the top of my screen. I have the macros, but they are all just “?”…and i want them to show the mark-icons instead. How can i do this?

If u wish to use this macro in Cata:

/run SetRaidTerget(“target, 1″);

like that

(No more script infront of stuff)

Think I found the problem, through random trial and error… it seems that possibly the macro window in wow doesn’t like curly quotes.

I copied and pasted straight from here and got the same error, erased just the quote marks in the macro editor and retyped them and it worked fine, no error.
