Auto-Interact with Target - Standard: Click to Move is bad

A bit of background:
I am multiboxing 5 characters of a class that have dps and healer spec in WoW
For my healer setup I'm using Key Maps > Combat Broadcast > Mapped Keys > Steps > Combat > Actions > Auto-Interact with Target - Standard, as it is the only option where each character will heal themselves by default upon pressing any 1-9 button that has a heal on it
Any other Mapped Key type: Assist Me, Auto-Assist me, Auto-Interract with Target, etc... will cause 4 characters other than active screen to target the active character my 'real' cursor is in, and heal that character
This is bad for me. Really bad. If I want them to assist and heal a character that gets focused by attacks, I will specify that manually by selecting a character, pressing assist and then heal. But I want default behavior to be that each character heals themselves, so that rain of fire does not bring any of 5 characters below 80% of health rather than leave 1 fully healed character and 4 characters with 20% health. And only Auto-Interact with Target - Standard can provide it

The issue that I'm having:
ISBoxer specifies that Auto-Interact with Target - Standard has the exception of no auto-assist (good for me!) but there is one absolutely enraging option that comes with it: click to move.
I absolutely hate it. Click to Move is number #1 thing that I currently hate. This has caused me so many wipes, lost characters, and just generally makes me right click on the game icon and close it. Currently this Click to Fail is the worst healer spec enemy there is. I have asked blizzard on forums to remove that option entirely but they apparently cater for people with no keyboard, (or those that want to play WoW like warcraft 3?)
Is there a chance there is an option with the exact Auto-Interact with Target - Standard mechanics but without Click to Move? Is it possible to set it up without having to go through advanced tutorials? When I use that option, I have tried disabling Click to Move in WoW interface, but as soon as I cast something, ISBoxer enables it again. I just end up not healing to preserve my sanity as when I click on ground accidentally my healers bravely march into boss cleave and obviously get 1 shotted, making me scream on top of my lungs and pull the plug in mind shattering rage. I wish that Click to Move option never existed, but I'd really appreciate an insight of how to use Auto-Interact with Target - Standard without Click to Move if it is at all possible :roll:

I mean, the easy way to do this is just a Keystroke Action that sends your Interact key to whichever window(s) you want, but if you just want to disable the CTM part of the Auto-Interact behavior:
1. In the top left pane under Key Maps select ISB42 - Party
2. In the bottom left pane under Mapped Keys expand Auto-Interact with Target - Standard
3. Under Auto-Interact with Target - Standard, where it says Steps, select 1
4. This has two Actions in it, the first one is to enable CTM. You can select and press Delete or right click and select Delete, then Export to Inner Space

voila, you can use the Auto-Interact feature without the CTM. Manually using the non-Auto interact Hotkey will still temporarily enable CTM. :)



More generally, the Auto-Interact feature is used for melee teams to try to keep moving at the target, which can be particularly useful in PVP -- and when the person at the controls is ready to pull in runners ;)

You could also expand the Key Maps - ISB42 - WoW Key Map, and shift+leftclick on the Click To Move On and Click To Move Off mapped keys, so they are red (which is disabled). Then Click To Move wont be executed as part of any of the pre-configured mapped keys (which may be a step too far, depending on your aims).
