Make sure you create a separate macro for stealth and evade.

Stealth is just hide followed by sneak while standing still while with evade you turn off atatck first, then hide. I tend to shove other skills in my macros as well such as sense heading (till it's maxed) and sense traps.

A nice tool I use on my rogue is to setup audio triggers to let me know what my abilities are doing so I don't have to keep checking the text spam in my combat window.

For example I get a chime when I have successfully hidden myself and a different chime when I am successfully sneaking. When ever either of those fail I get a loud thud sound. So when I hit stealth I know right away if both skills worked or not.

I also have a different audio sound for when I managed to evade from combat (and another thud sound if the evade failed).

I also created an audio trigger for when I get caught pickpocketing.

While these audio triggers aren't quite as vital for a rogue as they are for other classes it's still nice to have and so easy to set up while your LFG or waiting for a port or what ever.
