I have my dodge on alt, sometimes I dodge and try to tab my next target and BAM, im looking at my music media player while the enemy is pounding on a harmless plant golem. Is there a way to [checkbox] to turn that option off? I window my way out anyways always but everynow and thne I alt tab without wanting.

On a similar note, can we have a tab targerting option that allows me to target players only? Its really hard to find your enemy among 13 pets in PvP just to have a mini tiny asura (purposely made the smallest possible) standing among them, it makes the game mechanically bad.

Target Nearest Enemy, Targest Next Enemy. Target Previous Enemy are all bind-able.

Also, it’s best to avoid the Alt key in general, as preventing Alt+Tab involves using the Registry.

Yes but they all require different keys, and besides that doesnt solve the miniom cluster problem since most pets stand in front of the controller anyways.

As for the alt key I was wondering if there was some ad or macro or something I cold use to prevent that, I have configurated the entire left part of the keyboard in such a way that I need to use Alt key or I would be wasting its convinience.

I dont think it would be hard, just to add an option that I cant alt tab if there isnt a solution that lets me bypass this and does not involve ignoring the potential of alt

You’re going into a way to tell the OS to ignore a key command, which is possible, but would require a third party program. There are certain programs that will suppress key commands and only use those keys for themselves while they’re on (looking at you, Mumble, looking at you).

You could also use AutoHotkey to make it so that when you press Alt, it’ll actually press something like Numpad 9 and that Numpad 9 is the keybind for rolling. This way you can use Alt, but then pause/exit the AutoHotkey when not using GW2. The only problem would be you’d have to constantly unpause/turn it on when playing GW2.
