How to use autoattack?

I've seen this autoattack button in the actions window, but I really have no idea how to use it... can someone teach me how to use that?

Put autoattack on your hotkey tab on place where is letter M. It's separated from 1, 2, 3,... hotkeys.
First click on the monster once and then press X button or set some key in Options -> Set Input and Mouse Quickshoot.

Ooh! So it'll attack only that sort of monster or any monster?

Thanks for the info

Any monster. It's not autoattack in term that you will lay back and your char will do everything. After you target the monster and press that autoattack you char will attack, but when you kill it you have to target another monster same way. So it's the same as doubleclick to attack which I find better. Don't bother yourself over autoattack much. There are more useful this that can be in you mouse quickshoot slot.

I like using the auto attack because it seems I don't always start attacking when I double click... the mouse or monster moves a little or something.

I have the 'M' mouse slot set to my space bar - put the auto attack icon in the 'M' slot, go into options, select input tab, click in the 'Mouse quickslot' box and press the space bar. You should now see the word 'Space' in the box.

I play with my left thumb resting on the space bar, so I can single click on a target and as soon as I see the target monitor come up I tap the bar with my thumb. Something else I do, for fast targetting, is select my next target with a single mouse click just before the current target dies. As soon as the target I'm fighting gives it's 'death cry,' I tap the space bar and go right into attacking that next target that's already selected.

And, yes, you can also just click a target, use a skill and your character will start attacking. I guess it depends on the monsters and how quickly you want your skills to come into play.

Used it yesterday, not bad actually, beats double-clicking madly and find yourself not targetting it in the end
