Sorry, but that's not possible. If they made powers like that able to auto-fire, it would eventually lead to botting. You'll have to continue to point and click for ranged targeted powers like Teleport or Caltrops.

Biggest Troll on the forums? I'll give you a hint:
Although in theory, couldn't you modify the teleport bind so that Shift+LeftMosueClick (or control/alt+click) fired caltrops at your mouse's target (assuming it's viably aimed at the ground)?
/bind lshift+lclick "powexec_name Caltrops"
switch lshift with the chord key of your choice (ctrl or alt)
Not exactly what Drunken was asking for, but it is more streamlined and would interrupt the flow of battle less if it works.
"My inner mind has become a reality-cracking overgod. He torments me! Help!"
Shift+lbutton "powexecname Caltrops", the l in front of shift will just get dropped when it gets loaded. I don't see why it wouldn't work, I use it for Lighting Rode to good effect.
I tend to bind things like that to my thumb buttons. They're both on the left side of my mouse, thankfully. Thumb buttons on both sides is just pants on head retarded.

I use my thumb buttons (both on same side as well) for jumping and backward movement. It makes playing with one hand very easy so I can eat bacon with the other. lol j.k

Not what I was hoping for, but I can make it work. 
Thanks for all the input.

Then they should have both buttons on the right side of the mouse. They're not really thumb buttons if your thumb can only access one without needing to be a contortionist. |

The height of laziness!
I am looking for a macro so that I can one-button fires my caltrop. I want to bypass the (mouse) ground aiming and just throw them right in front of me. Is this possible?
Thanks
