Right-clickable ability with number icon like Santinel

[ALiEN95]

3 ways of solutions ....
1.)
i was wondering if there is ability with numbers like Night Elf - Santinel with number of birds available
but that ability needs to be right-clickable like auto-casting abilities

2.)
can somebody find how to detect when player clicks somewhere?
if there is a way to detect right click on ability (slot 3,2)

3.)
actions that give number icons to normal abilities

+rep for each solved way or some other if you know xD

EDIT:
ok so i see other 3 are impossible
-forget the mouse cursor...

4.)
is there any ability with number indicator,cooldown and target type - no target?

I don't think that there are many abilities with charges (except items but they are...items)

do you need some special type of "activation"?
all autocast spells only activate on special events (heal only heals units who took dmg, frost shield and bloodlust are casted in fights only, etc.)

if you only need 1 charge you could set the cooldown to some uber high value (shift+enter)

if you need more charges you could use a hashtable to store the number of casts for a special unit

if you need a number indicator you will need as many spells as you want it to have charges and replace abilities

Example:
you cast spell 1
replace spell 1 with spell 2
you cast spell 2
replace spell 2 with spell 3
you cast spell 3
you remove spell 3 cause you want it to have 3 charges only

of cause you can trigger the event on which the autocast ability should activate, too
you just have to make an autocast ability which never activates automatically anyway and check if a unit is issued an order like "frostarmoron", "frostarmoroff", "bloodluston" or "bloodlustoff"

-would be good that it is right-click able xD

do you need some special type of "activation"?

-yes i need right-click activation

if you only need 1 charge you could set the cooldown to some uber high value (shift+enter)
-no,i need 10 for each potion

if you need more charges you could use a hashtable to store the number of casts for a special unit
-good but im searching for number indicator

if you need a number indicator you will need as many spells as you want it to have charges and replace abilities

Example:
you cast spell 1
replace spell 1 with spell 2
you cast spell 2
replace spell 2 with spell 3
you cast spell 3
you remove spell 3 cause you want it to have 3 charges only

-tough about it before but to much icons
+rep for same idea

what im actually trying to make is + 1 bonus inventory so that you can "put" potion in inventory slot, (gives a hotkey for potion too xD )

-ability that targets item in inventory or ground is done

now i need right click able ability to make potion ability work like item in inventory slot (ability is added you target potion with ability)

-i can make it not right-clickable but with no number indicator (slow ability from sorceress or any other auto casting - no target ability)
-i can make it right-clickable with indicator (only way i know is free items)

The one for the mouse is easy, just overwrite these(or if people only shall be human, just overwrite the human one:
UI\Cursor\HumanCursor.blp
UI\Cursor\NightElfCursor.blp
UI\Cursor\OrcCursor.blp
UI\Cursor\UndeadCursor.blp

Yeah, and if you want to know more on how to create your own, check this out:

to much about cursor...

Yes. I wrote the tutorial, + I created a example mouse over here:

It functions without the model, however, the modelling part was, if you did not wanted to override the original.

ok... i see that other 3 ways are impossible

4.)
