GetActionInfo doesnt work properly?

[Blandros]

Hi,

if i do in my addon:

if slot then
    button.icon:SetTexture(GetActionTexture(slot))
    button.icon:SetTexCoord(0.1, 0.9, 0.1, 0.9)
    button.icon:Show()
    button.slot = slot
    print(GetActionInfo(slot))
end

the print says:

macro 121 macro 122 item 156833 spell 116 spell macro 122 macro 122 macro 122

But when i do:

if slot then
    button.icon:SetTexture(GetActionTexture(slot))
    button.icon:SetTexCoord(0.1, 0.9, 0.1, 0.9)
    button.icon:Show()
    button.slot = slot
    local body = GetActionInfo(slot)
    print(body)
end

the print says:

macro macro item spell nil macro macro nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil macro nil nil

why ?

I need the number of the macro..

Thank in advance!

Looks like the function has multiple return values. In the first code block you were printing everything that the function returns, on the second one you are grabbing the first value ( type ) and not the second value (id)

actionType, id, subType = GetActionInfo(slot)

Probably more like:

local body = select(3, GetMacroInfo(select(2, GetActionInfo(slot))))
print(body)

Once again @Xrystal and @Fizzlemizz thank you for your answers! You got me on the right track
