changing controls of calling

Hi,

with ctrl+space I can call a target and attack it. With ctrl+shift+space I can call a target and not attack it.
I want to play my monk with a sword ( just for the look ), but not run into a mob everytime I call. My problem is that I will get arthritis soon if I go on hitting ctrl+shift+space with my left hand. Stopping the movement after every call, also is annoying.
Can I switch the behavior to not attack after a ctrl+space call, or at least switch the controls to something more comforting?
I know that I could use a wand/staff or a spear, but I love the look of the fiery dragon sword on my rasta monk

you know once you call a target you don't unstoppably charge at that target until you hit it, right? ctrl+space, hit cancel or S. problem solved, it's that easy honestly. if you can't be bothered to slap s after you call a target then really you're basically SOL cause i'm afraid it doesn't get much more ridiculously easy than that.

u could rebind the actions to different keys
but that would still require 3 button key presses
the only one that cant be changed afaik is ctrl

ctrl+(supress action key)+(attack key)


if u want it to do it in 1 single button press
that would require a 3rd party program to make a macro/hotkey

(no it shouldnt be illegal for this purpose)

Pretty sure you're going to have to hit buttons. Right now, you're using the defaults:

Space does an action.
Ctrl calls the action.
Shift suppresses the action.

You can change shift to a different key or something, but that probably won't solve your dilema.

Ok, you are not going to get arthritis from pressing the buttons. I use those keys, I drum and play piano, but I'm pretty sure I'm not getting arthritis.

On topic: The only think I can think of is using a macro like on the G15.

Your not gonna get arthritis, seeing as its a fairly natural position for your hand to be in.
