How do you make skills have different targeting "behavior"?

Hi, I was wondering how to make skills change their targeting behavior? As an example: I have the skill "Storm Bolt". As default, it can target one individual unit, but I want it to target an area instead, how can this be done? Or maybe I don't want it to target anything at all, but simply trigger the skill immediately when I push the button.

And in addition to this, how do you make a skill channeling/non-channeling?

you can make it aoe by changing area of effect... i think that you cannot just click and cast.... but i think you must do it by any click and cast ability defaltly(like battle roar and so on...) and you can make spell chaneling by adding casting time to it

Use Channel ability, and modify it with triggers

Alright, I see. But if I have a channeling skill that I want to make non-channeling? Must I use a dummy then or what?
