Added a basical section to create your "look" commands.

(Gotta admit I didn't come to test those as I wrote it. Maybe additional pauses are nescessary...

Basically /ui action toolbarPane lets you switch the currently selected toolbar and /ui action toolbarSlot lets you clicks one button of that toolbar for you. Counting starts with zero, not with 1. To click the F5 button the command is /ui action toolbarSlot04. To switch to the fifth toolbar the command is /ui action toolbarPane04.

This is where it becomes a little tricky. Those commands are virtually never used outside a macro. For a simple reason: You could perform them with the mouse at any time. They are helpful to switch outfits at once though. Example:

1. Open the "aliases.txt" - normally C:\program files\StarWarsGalaxies\aliases.txt - file in your SWG home directory with WordPad (not with the Editor) and add the following lines:
   look1 /smoke;/pause 1;/ui action toolbarPane05;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot00;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot01;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot02;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot03;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot04;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot05;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarPane03;/echo \#660099Look 1 applied
   look2 /smoke;/pause 1;/ui action toolbarPane05;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot06;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot07;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot08;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot09;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot10;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot11;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarPane03;/echo \#660099Look 2 applied
   look3 /smoke;/pause 1;/ui action toolbarPane05;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot12;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot13;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot14;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot15;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot16;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot17;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarPane03;/echo \#660099Look 3 applied
   look4 /smoke;/pause 1;/ui action toolbarPane05;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot18;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot19;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot20;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot21;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot22;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarSlot23;/pause 0.1;/ui action toolbarPane03;/echo \#660099Look 4 applied



2. You know have four new commands /look1 ... /look4. They will equip the outfits you set on your last toolbar, hiding them under your "best" available smokebomb if you are dancing. Of course you can always edit the "alias.txt" file in your profile directory directly if you are offline



3. Start the game. If it was already running restart it. Arrange four outfits on your last command tab (CTRL+F6) by dragging the pieces of clothing, props and assecours you use exclusively for that one outfit on it. Arrange it so that Each outfit uses an equal qarter (F1 - F6, F6 - F12, same in the lower bar) of the toolbar.



4. If you want to switch back to different toolbar than the forth after the work is done you may copy the monospaced text into the Windows Editor, Select "replace" from the "edit" menu, search for "toolbarPane03" and replace it with anything from "toolbarPane00" - "toolbarPane07".

I should add that this is not really perfect... you know if you don't watch out you easily end... very light dressesd or in silly combinations...

Hehe...thanks for the warning. Note to self: Test before leaving the house.

Hey this is great stuff. to be honest I was thinking of not posting because I was thinking what could I say to make the post any better but after reading everything everyone posted I have to say thank you! I've been dreaming up a full dancer character and these are all great hints that I am sure to use thanks!

/updated

Nice job! Thanks!

That's a really helpful list of stuff there, thanks for the hard work.

I have /changedance in my macro list with an associated icon so that I can have it on my toolbar. Then the list of dances comes up, when I've selected the dance I want, I hit the smokebomb icon and change.
