Focus frame

Hello!
I've been wondering why can't I use focus frame with oUF or Pitbull. It is blocked by the default Blizzard UI.
Is there any way to fix it?
Thanks, Silgrond

Well, to be clear, the problem is that you cannot right click on a unit and select "Set Focus". This will cause the error. However, they will properly display a unit that has been set as a player's focus.

The failure on "Set Focus" is a known and long-standing issue for which I know of no direct workaround. I get around it by just having a macro that sets my target as my focus and have it keybound.

/focus to set the focus - and if you don't have anything selected it also clears the focus
/clearfocus will clear the focus regardless

If you do a search for wow macros it should come up with some useful sites with macros on and you should find a few that use /focus as part of the macro cycle.

There is also a keybind to set your focus in the default keybindings menu (it might be F by default? I forget)
