/micon

Are there icons useable specifically for Macros, which don't use an existing ability's icon? Or is it just the big M, and remember what you put on that slot!

You can choose from other icons by clicking on the macro's icon in the editing pane. The icon next to the macro's title.

Yeah, but what if I'd like to use other icons in my macros. For example, what if I want a sleep macro that uses the icon for target Ignore 1 or 2? I have these macros and I would love if they could show the ignore icon 1 and 2 instead of either the sleep icon twice or the blue numbers.

I think they should make every icon in the game (spells, target markers, food, gear, potions/elixirs, everything) available for use in macros.

Greetings,

Apologies for the bump! Below is a comment from Hiroshi Minagawa about macro icons pertinent to the topic at hand.

Can you make it so when /micon is used for macros, the icon in the macro window also changes based on what is indicated?

We've included this in our list of items for implementation, so please give us some time to get it in.

We are currently prioritizing adding other icons that are supported by /micon (for example, gear set, emotes, and class icons) as well as making it easier to determine which is a macro using /micon and which is the normal action when they are both set to the hotbar. As such, the above request is scheduled to take place after this.

• For your reference
  Currently, in the edit section on the right side of the User Macro window you can select a macro icon from the button that is at the top. When selecting an icon this way and also using /micon, the /micon setting takes priority when setting this macro to the hotbar, but the icon you selected with the button will be displayed in the macro window.
  
  By using this method to set the icons, it will become somewhat easier to distinguish the macros from the window.
  
  I apologize for the inconvenience while we work to address this.

Emotes too please!

OOoo yay there fixing this! This has always been slightly annoying. Next can we get a macro command to hide error messages please? :3 Like when your trying to use mouse over macros but not mousing over a valid target?

character config > log window settings > log filters > announcement tab > uncheck error msgs
workaround i use

anyone know the comand to use an item in a macro such as a either or elixier???????

its cool to set up the macro to show the icon but i personally like the tooltip to come with the package. i sat around for about a hour trying to get that function to work until i did some reading that SE left that out for some reason. really fail in my book.
