Editing WoW:Making a macro (section)

===button:1/2/.../5/''&lt;virtual click&gt;''===
Similar to [modifier], [button] allows your macro to respond differently based on which mouse button is being used to activate the macro. Button numbers 1-5 correspond to left, right, middle, button 4, and button 5, respectively. If your macro is activated by a keybinding, [button:1] will always be true. As an example, here is the macro you can use for mounting:

 <nowiki>#show Swift Green Mechanostrider
    /userandom [nobutton:2, flyable, nomounted] Ebon Gryphon; [nomounted] Black Battlestrider, Swift Green Mechanostrider
    /dismount [noflying] [button:2]</nowiki>

Behavior when not mounted: left-clicking will pick Ebon Gryphon if it can be used (flyable), otherwise it will randomly pick the Black Battlestrider or the Swift Green Mechanostrider. Right-clicking will always pick one of the mechachickens.

Behavior when mounted: left-click will only dismount if not flying. Right-click will always dismount.

The "virtual click" can usually be ignored, but if you use a bar mod it can be useful. Action bars that respond to various state changes translate clicks to virtual ones that determine which action to use. Because these virtual clicks are AddOn-specific, we won't go into any further detail here.
