control -click is "calling".

You were holding CTRL when you clicked the spell you were casting.

Yes, that is calling your target. Also useful when CTRL-clicking the mob as you are attacking.

Somewhere between Boardwalk and Park Place

Control + spacebar also achieves this effect.

To call an enemy that you are "Targeting" and not attacking, press control+shift+spacebar

If someone else in your group has been designated as 'the caller', they will do all the control clicking, and you should use 'T' to select the enemy they have 'called', then simply fire away.

Another way to target one that's already called it to click on the target that appears next to the callers name in the party bar.
