How do I equip pet actions with a macro?

[Rau]

I have two macros.

/hotbar pet "Embrace" 10 4
/hotbar pet "Fey Light" 10 5
/hotbar pet "Fey Glow" 10 6
/hotbar pet "Silent Dusk" 10 7

/hotbar pet "Embrace" 10 4
/hotbar pet "Fey Illumination" 10 5
/hotbar pet "Whispering Dawn" 10 6
/hotbar pet "Fey Covenant" 10 7

One is for equipping Selene's actions to the 10th bar, and the other for equipping Eos' actions. Upon using either action. However, both of them equip Eos' Embrace, and I am unable to equip Selene's embrace.

I haven't actually been able to find it either. Not sure if it's possible to set pet actions in that manner or not. For the time being there is this work around/ alternative:

Edit: Tested and found the right syntax:

/hotbar pet "Embrace" selene 10 4

Obviously replace "selene" with "eos" for Eos abilities.

This didn't work when /hotbar first started taking these commands. It only started working with a hotfix/patch (the same one that fixed copying to/from shared hotbars after 2.3 broke that).

Edit: Also, you can do the same thing with /micon to get the right Embrace showing: /micon "Embrace" pet eos

Can something like this work on the Cross Hotbar? Right now I have macros that will first attempt to use an Eos action but if that fails (because I have Selene out) it uses the Selene action. It works OK but the icons are for the Eos skill, so if I am using Selene the icons are greyed out even when usable.

A minor annoyance to be sure, but if I could use something like those macros to equip the right actions when I summon them it would be very handy.

Yep. Just use /chotbar and the right slot names (search for /chotbar at the link; slot names are at the bottom of the /chotbar section) instead of /hotbar and slot numbers. E.g.:

/chotbar pet "Embrace" selene 2 LDL

to put Selene's Embrace on cross hotbar #2, in the L2+Left slot.

Awesome! Thanks a lot!
