Ah. I guess you didn't attached the resize script to it then? Does the eepanel now corectly resize if the size of omen changes?

No, it doesn't resize because I do not have a resize script attached to it.
I was sadly unaware that one existed, my experience with eePanel scripts is limited as of now.

I have an eePanel behind my omen too, and got the same problem, you have to make sure it's anchored to the bottom (or top) of Omen and not the middle as it is in your picture. The whole resize thing is a personal preference. I generally don't use Omen in 5mans and it's hopefully filled when I'm in raids, so I have never really seen the need to resize it. Did give it a fair bit of thought, maybe I'll do it for some other frame just for kicks some day.

Yeah, the middle of the frame issue was due to it being both parented and anchored.
If you parent it, NOT anchor it, and just size it to however big it'll be when full, it works fine.
That's what I'm using now, and sounds like what you're doing.
The resize thing doesn't much matter to me, like you said, it's hopefully full in raids.

Hi, I have a few questions.

I downloaded a compilation, installed it and so forth, everything works fine.

It uses Pitbull unitframes, and I'd like it to show level of myself and my target, in the apropiate frames, but in the options I cant find anything about this, is that because it can't be done, or what?

Also, there is some mod showing me if a target is banishable, by a little round icon on the screen, any idea what mod it could be, because it is quite annoying.

The UI compilation is Hals v8.

Thanks in advance.

I'm wondering if anyone is having the same problem as me.

For the past week I've had the random occurance of my bartender mod swapping to a page it's not intended to swap too. I'll be going from Battle Stance to Berzerker Stance but I end up on the bar that has my pots on it.

I've been trying to recreate and fix the problem several times, but usually I end up giving up and just deleting the Bartender folder and starting over from scratch, so far I've had the luck of it not happening in a raid yet.

Anyone that might have a hint of how this problem occurs?

With Pitbull, you'll need to either re-enable the 'class' text for each frame (by default it shows the level as well), or add a new text with the tag for Level (I think it's just [level] for the most basic version). In the most recent version of Pitbull, there's a small tutorial for tags in the text interface.

The banish icon sounds like Necrosis. There should be an option to turn it off if you don't want to lose the whole mod.

Ah thank you, the Pitbull thing worked for my player frame, by adding the tag "Class" - "Level" had no effect, but either of them won't work on my target frame. Any ideas?

Make sure that the tag is anchored to a visible member of the frame. I.E. if you have no health bar visible on the target frame (Haven't looked at Hal's UI in a while), anchoring to the health frame will hide the text. Easiest frame to anchor to is 'frame' itself, as this is the parent of the whole frame.

mskio · 02/09/08, 5:30 PM

Thanks again

Turned out I had to add the text string [Level] [SmartClass:ClassColor] - works now.

Is there any alternative to Auctioneer? I'm a junkie when it comes to it, making a lot of gold on flasks (sell 100-120 per week) and its a REALLY painful job to put them on AH piece by piece... And current and last 4-5 months worth of auctioneers are bugged (well, Enh Tooltip is) and keeps throwing a stupid error when i hover over items and such.

That's error I'm getting with current auctioneers for last couple of months, tried to remove ALL addons and delete WTF folder, but it didnt help.

So in short, im looking for something that can put stuff on AH the way Appraiser in Auctioneer Advanced does, something that shows me price per item and something to memorize my prices.

Either that, or some addon that kills these popup windows, I used to have Improved Error Frame before, but that worked before TBC came out, cant seem to find anything like it lately.. :-/

As for the specific auctioneer issues, you'll probably have better luck posting on the mod's website's forums.

It was a Blizzard change from 2.3.0

- When you speak with an NPC with a single function (Banker, Flight
Master, Etc) and who has no other gossip options or quests you will
go straight to their functional pane rather than to the gossip pane.
Most importantly this means that clicking on a flight master will
bring up the flight path map directly rather than the gossip pane
with the option to bring up the flight path map.

However the text is STILL THERE, but it just auto-jumps over it. =/

I want to read my flavor text.

In regards to this, I noticed that it skips the text the first time you talk to the NPC, like you see the text, then it auto-jumps to the vendor, the next time you visit the vendor there's no text at all and all times after that. In addition if you delete your WTF/WTB folders it resets so to speak, where you see the text flash for a moment. Any help at all? >_>

Is it random? Or does it occur when you change stances?
If it's stances, then that's called button paging, which swaps out your skill bars for Bar 1 -> Bar X, where Bar X is the bar set to show when in Stance X. In the Bartender options for Bar 1, find button paging, and look for the modifier based on what stance you're in. You can change which Bar it switches to there.

Completely random.

I had my paging setup to Battle stance Bar 1, Berzerker Page 5 and Defensive Page 4.

I've had it happen that I try to stance dance to berzerker, and end up on my food/pots/mounts bar.

I've had it happen when tanking a mob (no stance dancing) and mashing buttons that it just suddenly changes to a random bar.

I've checked to see if the modifiers where set to anything, I triple and quadruple checked paging. Tried disabling/enabling paging on several bars to see if it fixed the problem.

I can't seem to recreate the strange random bar swapping either, I've tried every possible keycombo I could possibly mash by accident while tanking/dpsing, still not any futher.

Hey guys, I'd like some ideas. Here is a shot of my current UI:http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/8904/examplezs5.jpg. A direct query:

I want to change that bit at the bottom centre where my unitframs and actionbar is. I don't know; there's just something about it I don't like. The shape isn't right or something. Under the two unitframe bars I have some mouseover bars with my healing spells, pots, mounts, WF etc. There's a grid of buttons under each one. Any ideas on what I can do to improve how it looks?

Any other comments or suggestion are more than welcome, of course.
